MCP Jira Stdio runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 632 installs a week from npm. Last commit 14 Sep 2026.
MCP server for Jira Cloud — issues, search, comments, attachments, transitions.
Today is the operative word: we check MCP Jira Stdio every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.
