atlassian-browser-mcp
MCP server that wraps the upstream mcp-atlassian toolset with browser-cookie authentication via Playwright, for Atlassian Server/Data Center instances behind corporate SSO (Okta, SAML, etc.) where API tokens are not available. It runs locally over stdio: you log in once with the bundled CLI, and the server reuses the cookies.
Features
- Every mcp-atlassian Jira and Confluence tool, authenticated with your SSO browser session instead of an API token.
- One login per service with the CLI; the server itself never opens a browser, so it never hangs waiting for one.
- Seeds the automation profile from your real Chrome profile, so the first login is often one click.
- On macOS, reuses a live session from an installed Chromium-family browser (Arc, Brave, Edge, Chrome and others) without opening a window.
- Separate cookie jars for Jira and Confluence.
- A command-line front-end (
atlassian-cli) for scripts and agents: get and search issues and pages. - Falls back to token auth with
ATLASSIAN_BROWSER_AUTH_ENABLED=false.
