Jenkins MCP server with bearer token authentication support
Connect MCP to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. Jenkins MCP server with bearer token authentication support. The mcp mcp server is what makes that connection.
Add the server to your MCP client config. The recommended approach uses environment variables:
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:
Category — ToolsViews — jenkins_list_views, jenkins_get_viewTools — The Tools tool exposed by this serverInstallation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @kud/mcp-jenkins on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Configuration is passed through the environment: MCP_JENKINS_URL, MCP_JENKINS_USER, MCP_JENKINS_API_TOKEN, MCP_JENKINS_BEARER_TOKEN. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
This sits in the monitoring and observability group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. MCP's toolset — Category, Views, Tools — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by GitHub Actions; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
