Questions

What is the Jira Communication MCP server?

A test of jira mcp server

What tools does Jira Communication expose?

11 in total: 5 read-only, 5 that write, and 1 that can delete or overwrite (delete_ticket). Every one is listed on this page with its risk.

Is Jira Communication safe to connect to an agent?

The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B. Separately from the audit: 1 of its tools can destroy data, so scope the token you give it to what you actually need.

What credentials does Jira Communication need?

It reads JIRA_API_KEY from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.

How does Jira Communication run?

It speaks stdio, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as jira_communication_server at 0.2.0.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (51c396658177), read on 2026-10-09. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
