atlassian-mcp-server

Official remote MCP server for Atlassian. Securely connect Jira, Confluence, Jir

Atlassian's own MCP server covers both Jira and Confluence in a single server. Once installed you can just say "list every unassigned bug in this sprint" or "create a Confluence page from these meeting notes".

It helps most with writing issues — the AI can see your project's existing field structure and label scheme, so the issues it creates match your team's conventions instead of being a bare title and one sentence.

What it does for you

Lets your AI operate Jira / Confluence — query tickets, create issues, read/write docs, managing projects and wikis through chat.

Capabilities

  • Query / create Jira issues
  • Read / write Confluence pages

Once installed, try asking your AI

Say this directly in Claude / Cursor or any client with this server connected

  • File this bug as a Jira ticket assigned to me
  • Which tickets are still open in this sprint?

Why use it

Good for: anyone shuttling information between Jira and Confluence all day, especially team leads and PMs.

Before connecting: this is the official implementation and authenticates through Atlassian OAuth. The community's sooperset/mcp-atlassian has wider adoption and supports self-hosted Server/Data Center — worth a look if you're not on Cloud.

Install / Connect

# No npm package — install from source.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it support self-hosted Jira Server / Data Center?

The official server targets Atlassian Cloud. For self-hosted, look at the community mcp-atlassian implementation.

Will the AI edit my issues directly?

It depends on the scopes you grant. If you only want lookups, grant read-only scopes during OAuth.
