What is the Jira Confluence MCP MCP server?

PythonベースのMCP(Model Context Protocol)サーバーで、JiraとConfluenceのAPIと対話できます。. The jira confluence mcp mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 14 defined tools rather than through you.

Its toolset

Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:

  • jira_search_issues — JQLを使用してイシューを検索
  • jira_get_issue — 特定のイシューの詳細を取得
  • jira_create_issue — 新しいイシューを作成
  • jira_update_issue — 既存のイシューを更新
  • jira_add_comment — イシューにコメントを追加
  • jira_transition_issue — イシューのステータスを変更
  • jira_get_projects — プロジェクト一覧を取得
  • confluence_search_content — CQLを使用してコンテンツを検索
  • confluence_get_page — ページの詳細を取得
  • confluence_create_page — 新しいページを作成
  • confluence_update_page — 既存のページを更新
  • confluence_delete_page — ページを削除

Adding it to your client

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.

Configuration

You will need 8 environment variables: JIRA_URL, JIRA_USERNAME, JIRA_API_TOKEN, JIRA_CLOUD, CONFLUENCE_URL, CONFLUENCE_USERNAME, CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN, CONFLUENCE_CLOUD. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

When to reach for it

Plenty of planning and project tracking servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Jira Confluence MCP's toolset — jira_search_issues, jira_get_issue, jira_create_issue and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by katsuhirohonda; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Caveats

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • With 14 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Jira Confluence MCP.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the jira confluence mcp mcp server does with a few real requests.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Jira Confluence MCP to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 14 tools (jira_search_issues, jira_get_issue, jira_create_issue, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Jira Confluence MCP directly.
