What the publisher says

From the Atlassian Extended repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

mcp-atlassian-extended

Install: uvx mcp-atlassian-extended | PyPI | MCP Registry | Changelog

mcp-atlassian-extended is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that extends mcp-atlassian with 26 tools, 15 resources, and 5 prompts for Jira and Confluence: issue creation with custom fields, issue links, attachments, agile boards, sprints, backlog management, user search, project versions (API v2), calendars, time-off tracking, and sprint capacity planning. Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code Copilot, and any MCP-compatible client.

Supports Jira Cloud, Jira Data Center, Confluence Cloud, and Confluence Data Center (self-hosted). No Atlassian Premium required.

Built with FastMCP, httpx, and Pydantic.

Relationship to mcp-atlassian

This project runs alongside mcp-atlassian, not as a replacement. Configure both servers:

mcp-atlassian handles: issues, search, transitions, comments, worklog, pages, Confluence search
mcp-atlassian-extended handles: attachments, agile, users, fields, versions (API v2), calendars, time-off

There is no tool overlap — this server only implements tools that mcp-atlassian lacks.
