A Model Context Protocol (MCP) implementation for Jira that allows you to:
- Input a Jira ticket link to fetch issue details and instruct Cursor to fix it
- Retrieve all tickets assigned to you within a specified Jira project
- Filter Jira issues based on a specific issue type and automatically direct Cursor to resolve them
- Integrate seamlessly with Jira's API for automation and efficiency
Setup
Prerequisites

Questions
What is the Jira Context MCP server?
MCP server to provide Jira Tickets information to AI coding agents like Cursor
What tools does Jira Context expose?
5 in total: 5 read-only, 0 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.
Is Jira Context 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.
What credentials does Jira Context need?
It reads JIRA_API_TOKEN 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 Context run?
It speaks sse and stdio, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as jira-mcp at 0.1.0.
How current is this page?
The grade is for one exact copy of the source (e2aa08a80983), read on 2026-10-09. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
