Jenkins Server MCP Server

Jenkins server mcp mcp server lets Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients work with Jenkins Server MCP directly. Jenkins Model Context Protocol server.

What Jenkins Server MCP does

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides tools for interacting with Jenkins CI/CD servers. This server enables AI assistants to check build statuses, trigger builds, and retrieve build logs through a standardized interface.

Tools it exposes

Once connected, the assistant can call this tool directly:

• Debugging — Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, you can use the MCP Inspector for debugging:

Installing the jenkins server mcp mcp server

Setup follows the standard MCP pattern: clone or install the server, then register it in your client's configuration file and restart the client. The configuration snippets on this page cover Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor.

Configuration

Before the server will start you need to supply 3 environment variables: JENKINS_URL, JENKINS_USER, JENKINS_TOKEN. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than committing them.

Where it fits

Developer-tool servers are usually the first ones people connect, because they turn "help me with this code" into an assistant that can actually read the repo and act on it. Jenkins Server MCP sits in that group, and the shape of its toolset — Debugging — tells you what it is really for. Worth comparing against the other developer tools servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.

Practical notes

• This server runs locally, so it operates with whatever access your machine and its credentials already have. Scope that deliberately rather than by default.
• It will not start until its required credentials are present, so set those before wondering why the tools never appear.
• Maintained by hekmon8, written in TypeScript.
• MCP clients ask for confirmation before each tool call by default. Keep that on while you learn what the jenkins server mcp mcp server actually does with your data.
• Every entry in this directory is reviewed by hand before it goes live, and details are checked against the project's own documentation.
