No Jira MCP server yet? Build one in minutes

Record the Jira task once, or describe it to an AI session, and Writ turns it into an MCP tool your agent can call, taking real actions on your own Jira account.

  1. 1
    Record a Jira action once

    Open the recorder and open a board on Jira in a real browser. Writ captures the steps, login and 2FA included, into a workflow.

  2. 2
    Publish it as an MCP tool

    One click exposes the workflow as an MCP tool with a typed input schema, alongside a REST endpoint. Your agent picks it by its description.

  3. 3
    Call it from any MCP client

    Point Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client at your Writ server. The Jira tool acts on your own account and returns structured output.

Browse supported MCP clients, see what's possible on workflows, or search for another site. Free to start. See pricing.

why

Jira has no MCP server

Read-only website-to-MCP tools can summarize a Jira page, but they can't do anything on it. Writ turns the Jira workflows you build into MCP tools your agent calls to take real actions (search, extract, submit), authenticated, on your own Jira account.

Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.

Jira tools your agent can call

Each tool is a real Jira workflow with a typed input schema and structured output. Your agent picks the right one by its description.

{ }jira.export_issuesExport issues matching a JQL filter.
{ }jira.update_issueUpdate a field on an issue in your site.

Jira MCP questions

Is there an official Jira MCP server?
Jira does not publish an MCP server. Writ lets you turn the Jira workflows you build (recorded, described, or discovered) into MCP tools your agent can call. They take real actions, not just read page text.
Are there ready-made Jira MCP tools I can install?
Record the Jira task once in the recorder, or describe it to an AI session, then publish it. Writ exposes it as both an MCP tool and a REST endpoint, usually in minutes.
How is this different from a read-only website-to-MCP tool?
Most website-to-MCP tools are readability crawlers that return page text. Writ tools act and transact: they log in, fill forms, click, extract, and complete multi-step Jira tasks, then return structured output your agent can use.
Does it work with Jira login and 2FA?
Writ signs into your own Jira site through a Persona, including SSO and 2FA, and runs inside that authenticated session. Because each MCP tool is a real browser workflow, it runs inside your own authenticated Jira session, with TOTP and mailbox-OTP two-factor handled by Personas.
Which MCP clients can use these Jira tools?
Any MCP-compatible client: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and others. Point the client at your Writ MCP URL and authenticate with a wt_ key (or a csk_ consumer key for downstream callers).
Is it allowed to use Jira this way?
Use Writ on your own Jira site. Authorized automation of your own workspace. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.
