Atlassian MCP Server by InfraMCP

Jira, Confluence and Jira Service Management from one server, with a browser OAuth flow that completes itself.

LABSCO SUMMARY

The scopes are the setup, and getting them wrong looks like a bug.

Almost every failure report on a server like this is a missing scope: the README maps the error text to the cause — a scope mismatch means it is absent from the OAuth app, "current user not permitted" means the product permission is missing, and adding a scope later means re-running the authentication tool to get fresh tokens. The step people skip is installing the app to the site through the Authorization URL generator; nothing works before that. The discovery tools on the Service Management side exist for the same reason — ask what fields a request type needs rather than guessing.

What it is

An Atlassian Cloud server built around three separable clients — Jira, Confluence and Service Management — each of which can be turned off so you only load what you use. Authentication is OAuth 2.0 with PKCE, and tokens refresh automatically.

What you get

  • authenticate_atlassian starts the flow: the browser opens, you authorise, and credentials are saved locally for next time
  • Jira: jira_search with JQL, jira_get_issue, jira_create_issue, jira_update_issue, jira_add_comment
  • Confluence content: confluence_search, confluence_get_page, confluence_create_page, confluence_update_page, plus confluence_get_page_children and confluence_search_content
  • Confluence spaces: confluence_list_spaces, confluence_get_space, confluence_get_space_pages
  • Confluence collaboration: comments with confluence_get_page_comments, confluence_add_comment and confluence_get_comment; labels with confluence_get_page_labels, confluence_search_by_label and confluence_list_labels; attachments and full version history including a specific past version
  • Service Management discovery: servicedesk_check_availability, servicedesk_list_service_desks, servicedesk_list_request_types and servicedesk_get_request_type_fields, which tells you what a request type actually requires before you try to create one
  • Service Management operations: create requests, comment publicly or internally, read status, list transitions and move a request through them, handle approvals and participants

Requirements

Python 3.8 or higher and the PyPI package atlassian-mcp-server, version 0.4.4. Before it will run you need an OAuth 2.0 integration in the Atlassian Developer Console with the callback set to http://localhost:8080/callback and the required scopes added, then the app installed to your site through the Authorization URL generator. ATLASSIAN_SITE_URL, ATLASSIAN_CLIENT_ID and ATLASSIAN_CLIENT_SECRET go in the environment; ATLASSIAN_MODULES limits which of jira, confluence and service_desk load.

Setup effort

One command plus credentials — pip3 install atlassian-mcp-server, then supply credentials
