What is it?

MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol server that connects AI assistants such as Claude Desktop and Cursor to Atlassian's Jira and Confluence. Once configured with an API token or personal access token, an assistant can search issues with JQL, create and update tickets, change issue status, search Confluence with CQL, and read, create, or edit pages and comments.

The server works with both Atlassian Cloud and Server/Data Center deployments. Confluence Cloud and Jira Cloud are fully supported, while Server/Data Center is supported from Confluence 6.0 and Jira 8.14 onward. It exposes 98 tools in total and can be run via uvx, Docker, or pip, with SSE and streamable-http transports also available.

The project is MIT licensed and is not an official Atlassian product.
