### Description (declared)

# jira-ticket-mcp

Minimal MCP server for managing Jira Cloud tickets.

The official Jira MCP server exposes a tool surface large enough to crowd out an
LLM's context. This one exposes a deliberately small, curated set of tools
covering the actions that actually get used.

## Configuration

The server reads three settings, from environment variables or from the
equivalent CLI arguments (CLI wins):

| Environment variable | CLI argument | Description |
|----------------------|--------------|-------------|
| `JIRA_BASE_URL` | `--jira-base-url` | Your Jira site, e.g. `https://example.atlassian.net` or `https://jira.example.com` |
| `JIRA_EMAIL` | `--jira-email` | The account email the API token belongs to (Cloud only) |
| `JIRA_API_TOKEN` | `--jira-api-token` | A Cloud API token, or a Data Center/Server personal access token |
| `JIRA_API_VERSION` | `--jira-api-version` | Force REST API `2` or `3`; autodetected from the host if unset |

## Running

```bash
uvx jira-ticket-mcp --jira-base-url https://example.atlassian.net \
                    --jira-email you@example.com \
                    --jira-api-token "$JIRA_API_TOKEN"
```

As an MCP server entry, e.g. for Claude Code:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jira": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["jira-ticket-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "JIRA_BASE_URL": "https://example.atlassian.net",
        "JIRA_EMAIL": "you@example.com",
        "JIRA_API_TOKEN": "..."
      }
    }
  }
}
```

## Tools

| Tool | What it does |
|------|--------------|
| `whoami` | Return the authenticated account, including its `accountId` |
| `search_issues` | Search by JQL, returning a trimmed projection rather than full issues |
| `get_issue` | Fetch one issue in full detail |
| `list_transitions` | List the status transitions currently valid for an issue |
| `create_issue` | Create an issue; `parent_key` makes it a subtask or attaches it to an epic |
| `batch_create_issues` | Create many issues, returning a per-item result |
| `ed…
