Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade D, and why

connect-atlassian scanned grade D with 3 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

/connect-atlassian — Jira + Confluence Integration

Connects your Atlassian Cloud (or Server/Data Center) account to Claude Code using the sooperset/mcp-atlassian MCP server. Gives Claude access to 72 tools across Jira and Confluence.


Prerequisites

  • Atlassian Cloud account (Jira and/or Confluence)
  • Python 3.10+ (for uvx)

Step 1: Check Existing Configuration

Read ~/.claude/settings.json. Check if mcpServers.mcp-atlassian already exists.

  • Already configured: Display current config. Ask: "Atlassian is already connected. Update / Keep / Remove?"
  • Not configured: Proceed to Step 2.

Step 2: Generate API Token

Guide the user through API token creation:

To connect Jira and Confluence, you need an Atlassian API token.
This takes about 2 minutes and the token lasts up to 365 days.

1. Open: https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens
2. Click "Create API token"
3. Name it "Claude Workflow" (or anything descriptive)
4. Set expiration to 365 days (maximum)
5. Click Create → Copy the token immediately (you can't see it again)

Use AskUserQuestion to collect the API token (user pastes via "Other" text input).


Step 3: Collect Connection Details

Use AskUserQuestion:

  1. Atlassian site URL: "What is your Atlassian site URL? (e.g., yourcompany.atlassian.net)"
  2. Email: "What email do you use to log into Atlassian?"
  3. Products: "Which Atlassian products do you use?"
    • Jira + Confluence (both)
    • Jira only
    • Confluence only

Step 4: Install Prerequisites

# Check if uvx is available
uvx --version 2>/dev/null

If missing, offer to install:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

Step 5: Configure Environment Variables

Instruct the user to add credentials to their shell profile (~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, or ~/.profile):

# Add to your shell profile:
export JIRA_API_TOKEN="<your-api-token>"
export CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN="<your-api-token>"  # Same token works for both

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
