Installation

To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:

On MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Jira communication server": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/PATH_TO_THE_PROJECT/build/index.js"
      ],
      "env": {
        "JIRA_URL": "https://XXXXXXXX.atlassian.net",
        "JIRA_API_MAIL": "Your email",
        "JIRA_API_KEY": "KEY_FROM : https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens"
      }
    }
  }
}

Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector, which is available as a package script:

npm run inspector

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
