Atlassian MCP server

Atlassian × Claude Code

Use the Atlassian MCP server
in Claude Code

Search and update Jira issues, Confluence pages, and Bitbucket from your AI. This guide connects Atlassian to Claude Code (the terminal agent) through a governed gateway — one URL that also works in every other MCP client you use, with your rules and a full log attached.

Live-probed · Security-scanned · OAuth sign-in

Setup: Atlassian in Claude Code

Claude Code adds MCP servers via the `claude mcp add` command. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Connect Atlassian to your free gate gateway from the verified directory.
  2. In your terminal: claude mcp add gate https://gateturbo.com/api/mcp --transport http
  3. Approve the sign-in when Claude Code opens it in your browser.
  4. Atlassian's tools now appear in every Claude Code session — with per-tool allow/ask/block rules if you want them.

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same Atlassian connection works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool Atlassian exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything Claude Code did with Atlassian — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

Atlassian passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
