  2. Enhancing project tracking with AI assistance.
  3. Streamlining workflows by integrating AI with Jira tasks.

Add to your AI client

Use these steps to connect MCP Jira Integration 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": {
    "mcp-jira-warzuponus": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-jira-warzuponus"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

Claude Code

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

.mcp.json (project root)

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

VS Code (Copilot)

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

.vscode/mcp.json

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

Windsurf

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

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

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

Cline

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

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

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