    From the README

    The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a new, standardized protocol designed by Anthropic to manage context between large language models (LLMs) and external systems. This repository offers an MCP Server for Atlassian.

    The Remote MCP Server is a cloud-based bridge between your Atlassian Cloud site and compatible external tools. Once configured, it enables those tools to interact with Jira and Confluence data in real-time. This functionality is powered by secure OAuth 2.1 authorization, which ensures all actions respect the user’s existing access controls.

    The Remote MCP Server helps bring Atlassian data into your existing workflows:

    It’s designed to support developers, content creators, and project managers working within IDEs or AI platforms.

    Ensure your environment meets the necessary requirements to successfully set up the Remote MCP Server. This section outlines the technical prerequisites, access considerations, and security details.
