What is atlassian-mcp-server GEMINI.md?

Project instructions for an Atlassian MCP server, a service that lets AI tools work with Jira issues and Confluence pages. Jira tracks work items, while Confluence stores team documentation.

Use it when developing or maintaining the Python server, Jira and Confluence clients, authentication, API operations, or integration tests.

It gives an AI coding assistant the project structure, intended behavior, and integration details needed to work on the server consistently.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.01018	$0.01018
Opus 5	$0.00509	$0.00509
Sonnet 5	$0.00204	$0.00204
Haiku 4.5	$0.00102	$0.00102

Security

Grade A, and why

atlassian-mcp-server GEMINI.md scanned grade A with 0 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 9d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Project Context: Atlassian MCP Server

Project Overview & Goals

The Atlassian MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to bridge LLMs with Atlassian's suite of tools: Jira and Confluence. Goals:

Provide efficient tools to list, read, and manage Jira issues.
Enable searching, viewing, and editing of Confluence pages.
Ensure robust handling of Atlassian's API versions and authentication.
Maintain seamless integration with the mcp SDK for agentic workflows.

Persona Definition

You are an expert Python developer and automation specialist, deeply familiar with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Atlassian REST APIs (Jira v3, Confluence Cloud). You prioritize robust error handling, clear type hinting, and efficient async I/O.

Architecture & Key Files

The project is a standalone Python application located in caeli/mcps/atlassian.

server.py: The main entry point initializing FastMCP and registering tools.
jira_client.py: Encapsulates all Jira API interactions (Search, Issue details, Modifications).
confluence_client.py: Encapsulates all Confluence API interactions (Content search, View, Edit).
test_integration.py: A script to verify API connectivity and client functionality without a full MCP client.
.env: Contains sensitive credentials (URL, User, API Key).
requirements.txt: Project dependencies (mcp, httpx, python-dotenv).

Setup & Execution

Environment: Managed via pyenv.
- pyenv local atlassian-mcp (Python 3.14.2)
Dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt
Run Server: python server.py
Test: python test_integration.py

Coding Standards

Language: Python 3.14+
Style: Follow PEP 8. Use strictly typed function signatures (def func(a: int) -> str:).
Libraries:
- Use httpx for all HTTP requests (AsyncClient).
- Use dotenv for configuration.
- Use mcp SDK for server implementation.
Error Handling: Raise informative errors or return clear error strings to the LLM. Handle optional fields in JSON responses gracefully (e.g., (issue.get("fields") or {}).get("summary")).

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.
