Jira MCP Overview

The nguyenvanduocit/jira-mcp MCP server exposes Jira issue, sprint, workflow, comment, worklog, version, and development-information operations to MCP clients. It runs as a Go-based server over STDIO, with optional HTTP mode, and authenticates to Jira using an Atlassian host, email, and API token. Use it when an agent needs to search or modify Jira issues, inspect sprint state, transition workflows, or retrieve linked branches, pull requests, and commits. Tool exposure can be restricted with the ENABLED_TOOLS allowlist for narrower or read-focused deployments.
