Editor's note
MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol server that connects Claude Desktop and other MCP-compatible AI clients to both Confluence and Jira, covering Cloud, Server, and Data Center deployments. It exposes 72 tools in total, including `jira_search` (JQL-based), `jira_create_issue`, `jira_transition_issue`, `confluence_search` (CQL-based), `confluence_create_page`, and `confluence_update_page`, giving an AI assistant read and write access across both platforms. Authentication supports API tokens, Personal Access Tokens, and OAuth 2.0, and the server can be run via uvx, Docker, or pip. A notable detail is that the documentation is also published in llms.txt format, making it directly consumable by language models. The project targets developers, project managers, and teams who want to query issues, manage tickets, search knowledge bases, and create or update documentation without leaving their AI assistant interface.
