Depending on what you are doing, maybe the jira-cli makes more sense than the MCP. It's open source and seems to work fine at least with Claude Code: https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli
Just installed it and added this line to my Claude config ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md
You have access to jira command line tool for projects and issues in jira
Haven't done much testing, but at least Claude can now retrieve issues, update them etc.
