What does Atlassian MCP do?

Atlassian MCP is a Claude connector that runs Atlassian's Rovo MCP Server for Jira, Confluence, Loom and more. Claude can search Jira with JQL, read, create, edit and move issues, and add comments. It reads, creates and updates Confluence pages, fetches Loom videos and queries the Teamwork Graph. It can discover extra tools on demand for Bitbucket, Goals, Projects, Teams, Focus and Talent. Actions use your own permissions, your admin decides what is on (Jira delete tools start off), and each call is logged in your organization's audit log.
