Documentation Overview
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.
