Atlassian MCP Server for JIRA

The Atlassian MCP Server provides direct access to JIRA and Confluence from coding agents. This is the supported way to access Atlassian data from Cursor or Claude Code.

  1. Open Cursor Settings
  2. Go to Tools & MCP
  3. Enable "Atlassian-MCP-Server"

Configuration location: ~/.cursor/mcp.json

json
{
"mcpServers": {
"Atlassian-MCP-Server": {
"url": "https://mcp.atlassian.com/v1/sse"
}
}
}
In Claude Code

Add to your Claude Code MCP settings:

json
{
"mcpServers": {
"Atlassian-MCP-Server": {
"url": "https://mcp.atlassian.com/v1/sse"
}
}
}

Search for Issues
Use mcp_Atlassian_searchJiraIssuesUsingJql with:
jql: "project = YOUR_PROJECT AND component = 'YOUR_COMPONENT' AND status = 'In Progress'"
Create an Issue
Use mcp_Atlassian_createJiraIssue with:
project: "YOUR_PROJECT"
issueType: "Story"
summary: "Implement new feature"
description: "Description of the feature"
components: ["YOUR_COMPONENT"]
Transition Issue Status
Use mcp_Atlassian_transitionJiraIssue with:
issueKey: "PROJ-123"
transition: "In Progress"
Add Comment
Use mcp_Atlassian_addCommentToJiraIssue with:
issueKey: "PROJ-123"
comment: "Started working on this issue"

JQL Quick Reference

Common JQL queries for the Orient Task Force:

jql
# All issues for YOUR_COMPONENT
project = YOUR_PROJECT AND component = "YOUR_COMPONENT"
# In Progress issues
project = YOUR_PROJECT AND component = "YOUR_COMPONENT" AND status = "In Progress"
# Blockers
project = YOUR_PROJECT AND component = "YOUR_COMPONENT" AND (priority = Blocker OR labels = blocked)
# Recent issues (last 7 days)
project = YOUR_PROJECT AND component = "YOUR_COMPONENT" AND created >= -7d
# My issues
project = YOUR_PROJECT AND component = "YOUR_COMPONENT" AND assignee = currentUser()
# Sprint issues
project = YOUR_PROJECT AND component = "YOUR_COMPONENT" AND sprint in openSprints()

Troubleshooting

"Tool not found" Error

Make sure the Atlassian MCP Server is enabled in your IDE settings. The tools won't appear until the server is connected.

Authentication Issues

The Atlassian MCP Server uses OAuth. If you're not authenticated:

  1. The tool will prompt you to authenticate
  2. Follow the OAuth flow in your browser
  3. Grant the necessary permissions
Rate Limits

The Atlassian MCP Server is subject to Atlassian's rate limits. If you hit limits:

  • Reduce query frequency
  • Use more specific JQL to reduce result sets
  • Cache results when appropriate
