Mcp Jira Scoped

Overview

Mcp Jira Scoped is a Model Context Protocol server that connects AI assistants to Jira through scoped API tokens via the api.atlassian.com gateway. Instead of manually switching between tools, Claude and other AI clients can now work with your Jira instance directly as a set of native capabilities.

The server runs locally on your machine using npx -y mcp-jira-scoped. You'll need to provide three environment variables: JIRA_INSTANCE, JIRA_USER_EMAIL, and JIRA_API_TOKEN for API key authentication. Version 1.0.0 is the current release, distributed under the Apache-2.0 license with source code available at deepwired/mcp-jira on GitHub.

Mcp Jira Scoped appears in the AI & Agents category on mcp.site and works with any MCP client, including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. If you maintain this server, you can claim this listing to verify ownership and keep information up to date.
