This project provides a FastMCP server that connects to your Jira instance (Cloud or Server/Data Center) to generate weekly reports based on issue activity. It leverages the pycontribs-jira library for Jira. That is what the jira reporter mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
The server publishes 9 tools. What each one is for:
Security — **macOS — ** ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.jsonWindows — ** %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (usually C:\Users<YourUsername>\AppData\Roaming\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json)Linux — ** ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/Claude/)Description — ** Generates a report of Jira issues based on a JQL query (defaulting to recently updated). Optionally summarizes the report using the client's LLMjql_query — stringproject_key — stringmax_results — integersummarize — booleanConfiguration is passed through the environment: JIRA_URL, JIRA_API_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.
Because this one is hosted, setup is mostly authentication — you point your client at the endpoint and approve access. Nothing runs on your machine, so there is no runtime to keep patched.
Among the planning and project tracking options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Jira Reporter's toolset — Security, macOS, Windows and 6 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Jongryong; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
This entry was verified against Jira Reporter's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Your workspace, on speaking terms with AI — search, read and write Notion pages and databases.
Issue tracking at the speed of conversation — Linear's official hosted server with OAuth and zero install.
Search and read your Drive — Docs, Sheets and files become context your assistant can actually use.
Your assistant inside the workspace — read channels, search history, post messages and tame the noise.
Metabase ships its own MCP endpoint — search your BI content, build and run queries, and save questions and dashboards without leaving the chat.
Stop letting your assistant hallucinate n8n node parameters — this server hands it the real schemas, templates and validation.
