Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Jira Software Cloud MCP Server?
Connect your Jira Software Cloud instance to any AI agent to streamline your Agile project management. This server provides deep integration with Jira's Software-specific features like Boards, Sprints, and Epics.
What you can do
- Board Management — List all Scrum and Kanban boards, fetch their configurations, and view associated Sprints or Epics.
- Sprint Control — Create new sprints, retrieve sprint details, and update sprint states (start or complete) to keep your team moving.
- Backlog & Issues — Query board backlogs, fetch issues within specific sprints or epics, and manage issue rankings.
- Estimation Tracking — Retrieve and set story point estimations for agile issues to maintain velocity visibility.
- DevOps Integration — Submit and query development information including builds, deployments, and feature flags.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your Jira Domain, Email, and API Token
- Start managing your sprints and boards from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Scrum Masters & PMs — Quickly check sprint progress, move issues, and update sprint statuses without the heavy Jira UI.
- Developers — Check backlog priorities and update estimations directly from your coding environment.
- Release Managers — Track builds and deployments associated with Jira issues in real-time.

Frequently asked questions
How do I view the backlog for a specific board?
Use the get_board_backlog tool with the target boardId. It will return all issues currently in the backlog for that Scrum or Kanban board.
Can I change a sprint's status to active or closed?
Yes, use the update_sprint tool and provide the sprintId along with the desired state ('active' or 'closed').
Is it possible to check the story point estimation for an issue?
Yes! The get_issue_estimation tool allows you to retrieve the estimation value for any specific agile issue using its ID.
How does the Vercel AI SDK connect to MCP servers?
Import createMCPClient from @ai-sdk/mcp and pass the server URL. The SDK discovers all tools and provides typed TypeScript interfaces for each one.
Can I use MCP tools in Edge Functions?
Yes. The AI SDK is fully edge-compatible. MCP connections work on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and similar runtimes.
Does it support streaming tool results?
Yes. The SDK provides streaming primitives like useChat and streamText that handle tool calls and display results progressively in the UI.
