README

mcp-jira-scoped

The only MCP server for Jira that works with Atlassian's scoped API tokens.

Every other Jira MCP server uses classic (unscoped) API tokens with basic auth against yoursite.atlassian.net. Atlassian is deprecating those. This server uses scoped tokens with the modern api.atlassian.com gateway — the way Atlassian intends these tokens to be used.

What You Can Do

Once connected, you can ask your AI assistant things like:

"What's the status of PROJ-1234?"
"Search for all open bugs assigned to me in the BACKEND project"
"Create a story in PROJ for the database migration, priority P2, under epic PROJ-100"
"Move PROJ-1234 to In Progress"
"Add a comment to PROJ-1234 saying the fix is deployed to staging"
"Link PROJ-1234 as blocking PROJ-5678"
"Find all issues with 'auth' in the summary updated this week"

Why This Server

	mcp-jira-scoped	Other Jira MCP servers
Token type	Scoped (modern, `ATATT` prefix)	Classic (being deprecated)
Auth gateway	`api.atlassian.com`	`yoursite.atlassian.net`
Scope enforcement	Server-side, before every API call	None — relies on AI self-restraint
Default mode	Read-only (write must be explicitly granted)	Full access
Delete safety	Requires `confirm: true` parameter	No guard

Quick Start

1. Create a Scoped API Token

Go to Atlassian API Tokens
Click "Create API token with scopes"
Grant the scopes you need:
- read:jira-work — read issues, search, comments, projects
- write:jira-work — create/update/delete issues, add comments
- read:jira-user — look up users
- read:me — read your own profile

2. Add to Your AI Client

Claude Desktop / Claude Code

Add to your .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jira": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-jira-scoped"],
      "env": {
        "JIRA_INSTANCE": "yourcompany",
        "JIRA_USER_EMAIL": "you@yourcompany.com",
        "JIRA_API_TOKEN": "<your-scoped-token>",
        "JIRA_SCOPES": "read:jira-work,write:jira-work"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add the same config to Cursor's MCP settings (Settings > MCP Servers).

VS Code (Copilot)

Add to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "jira": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-jira-scoped"],
      "env": {
        "JIRA_INSTANCE": "yourcompany",
        "JIRA_USER_EMAIL": "you@yourcompany.com",
        "JIRA_API_TOKEN": "<your-scoped-token>",
        "JIRA_SCOPES": "read:jira-work,write:jira-work"
      }
    }
  }
}

Configuration

Env Var	Required	Description
`JIRA_INSTANCE`	Yes	Instance name (e.g. `mycompany` for `mycompany.atlassian.net`)
`JIRA_API_TOKEN`	Yes	Scoped API token (`ATATT...` prefix)
`JIRA_USER_EMAIL`	Yes	Email associated with the token
`JIRA_SCOPES`	No	Comma-separated scopes. Defaults to `read:jira-work` (read-only)
`JIRA_CLOUD_ID`	No	Atlassian Cloud ID. Auto-fetched if not set. Find it at `https://yoursite.atlassian.net/_edge/tenant_info`

Available Tools (14)
