Use the Atlassian MCP server
in Cursor

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

Setup: Atlassian in Cursor

Cursor adds MCP servers via MCP settings or install deep links. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Connect Atlassian to your free gate gateway from the verified directory.
  2. On your gate overview, click 'Add to Cursor' — Cursor opens and asks to install the gateway.
  3. Confirm and approve the sign-in.
  4. Atlassian's tools are now available to Cursor's agent, governed by your rules.

What to ask once it’s connected

“Which Jira tickets are blocking the release?”
“Summarize the progress of this epic.”
“Find the Confluence page on deployments and summarize it.”
“Create a Jira bug from this error report.”

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same Atlassian connection works in Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, 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 Cursor 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.
