What is the Alces-mcp Server?

Alces-mcp is an MCP integration. Alces for Jira Data Center — MCP server bridging Jira DC/JSM with AI agents.

Packages and local setup

The published npm package is alces-mcp, version 1.1.0. Its declared MCP transport is stdio.

The package declares JIRA_URL (required): Base URL of the Jira Data Center instance; JIRA_USER_TOKEN (required): Personal Access Token for standard operations; JIRA_ADMIN_TOKEN: Personal Access Token for elevated/admin operations (optional); JIRA_TIMEOUT_MS: Timeout in milliseconds for every Jira API call. Defaults to 30000 (30s) when unset or blank; raise it if your instance is slow.; ALCES_TOOL_GROUPS: Comma-separated tool domains to pre-activate at startup instead of the core-issues default (core-issues, jsm-service-desk, assets, issue-detail, agile, projects, filters-personal-settings, users-groups-permissions, admin). Unknown names are warned about on stderr and ignored.; ALCES_TOKEN_ESCALATION_DOMAINS: Comma-separated tool domains allowed to substitute JIRA_ADMIN_TOKEN via token escalation. Empty by default — no tool may escalate until its domain is listed here.; JIRA_SESSION_USERNAME: Optional Jira DC account username (not a PAT), paired with JIRA_SESSION_PASSWORD, enabling session-cookie auth for the legacy avatar upload/crop/finalize tools. Must be the same account as JIRA_USER_TOKEN and must not be an administrator: those tools authenticate as this account rather than the token.; JIRA_SESSION_PASSWORD: Password for JIRA_SESSION_USERNAME. Only used to establish a session cookie for the legacy avatar upload/crop/finalize tools..

Before connecting

Check the maintainer’s instructions for account access, authentication and the supported client configuration. Once connected, inspect the tools your client receives and try a small task that matches the server’s stated purpose. The registry description does not include a verified, complete tool list.
