Jira Context MCP

Source

MCP server to provide Jira Tickets information to AI coding agents like Cursor

Catalog onlyCatalog onlySTDIO

Overview

Jira Context MCP is a Model Context Protocol implementation for Jira that enables AI coding agents like Cursor to interact with Jira tickets, providing detailed information and automation capabilities.

To use Jira Context MCP, set up the server by installing the necessary dependencies, configuring your Jira API details, and connecting it with Cursor to fetch and manage Jira tickets.

  • Fetch issue details from Jira tickets using their links. - Retrieve all tickets assigned to you within a specified Jira project. - Filter Jira issues based on specific types and direct Cursor to resolve them. - Seamless integration with Jira's API for enhanced automation.
  1. Automating the retrieval of assigned Jira issues for developers.
  2. Filtering and fixing bugs in a project using AI assistance.
  3. Tracking recent changes in Jira tickets to stay updated on project status.

Add to your AI client

Use these steps to connect Jira Context MCP in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-jira-context-mcp-rahulthedevil"
      ]
