mcp-jira-scoped

A community-built MCP server for Jira that utilizes Atlassian's modern scoped API tokens via the api.atlassian.com gateway. It enforces scopes server-side, supports project restrictions, handles attachments, and converts between Markdown and ADF formats. It offers 34 default tools with additional gated options, ensuring safer interactions than classic token-based servers.
