Jira Mcp
Connects Claude directly to your Jira Cloud instance with a 24-tool interface covering the full issue lifecycle: create, update, delete, comment, transition, and assign. Also handles sprint management and pulls Confluence pages by URL. Runs via npx with basic auth (email + API token), no local installation needed. Includes automatic Markdown to ADF conversion for descriptions and comments, so you can write in Markdown and it transforms to Atlassian's document format. Built in TypeScript with Yup validation. Useful when you're triaging bugs, planning sprints, or need to query Jira data without context switching from your editor or Claude Desktop.
