Jira Admin MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server that gives an AI assistant (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or any MCP client) 78 purpose-built tools to administer a Jira Cloud site - not just read and create tickets, but the behind-the-scenes admin work: custom fields and where they appear, permission schemes, workflows, screens, issue-type schemes, groups, project roles, saved filters, and bulk operations.

Most Jira MCP servers cover everyday usage. This one covers administration, and adds safety rails (dry-run mode, shared-scheme detection, identity checks before group changes, actionable errors) so an agent can run real admin jobs end to end.

Built with FastMCP. Talks to the Jira Cloud REST API v3 with your own Atlassian email + API token.

Quick start

Two prerequisites, both one-time and quick:

  1. An Atlassian API token (it inherits your Jira permissions, so use an account with the access you need): create one here.
  2. uv installed (one line; it manages Python and dependencies for you, no virtualenv).

Then add the server with the one-click button or one-line command for your tool, and fill in your three JIRA_* values.

Cursor

Click the button, confirm in Cursor, then open ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or Cursor Settings -> MCP) and set JIRABASEURL, JIRAEMAIL, and JIRAAPI_TOKEN on the jira-admin entry.

Claude Code

One command (swap in your own three values):

claude mcp add --scope user \
  --env JIRA_BASE_URL=https://your-company.atlassian.net \
  --env JIRA_EMAIL=you@your-company.com \
  --env JIRA_API_TOKEN=your_api_token_here \
  --transport stdio jira-admin \
  -- uvx jira-admin-mcp

--scope user makes it available in every project; drop it to add only to the current one. Check with claude mcp list.

VS Code

After installing, set your JIRA_* values on the jira-admin entry in .vscode/mcp.json (or your user mcp.json).

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
