Content

Jira Prompts MCP Server

This repository provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that offers several commands for generating prompts or contexts from Jira content.

This repository draws significant inspiration from the MarkItDown MCP server and the example Git MCP server. It also incorporates design and code elements from the mcp-atlassian repository. The main differences between this repository and mcp-atlassian are that it uses pycontribs/jira instead of atlassian-api/atlassian-python-api to interact with the Jira API, and it focuses on providing prompts rather than tools. The latter makes it especially useful when working with tools that support only MCP prompts, such as Zed's AI assistant.

Here's another MCP server project of mine: ceshine/git-prompts-mcp-server
