Jira Easy MCP runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 113 installs a week from npm. Last commit 27 Oct 2026.
Self-hosted Jira Server/Data Center 7-10 for AI agents with username + password. 42 tools.
Today is the operative word: we check Jira Easy MCP 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.
