Atlassian Bitbucket MCP Server

This project provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that acts as a bridge between AI assistants (like Anthropic's Claude, Cursor AI, or other MCP-compatible clients) and your Atlassian Bitbucket instance. It allows AI to securely access and interact with your repositories, pull requests, and workspaces in real time.


Overview

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI systems to securely and contextually connect with external tools and data sources.

This server implements MCP specifically for Bitbucket Cloud, bridging your Bitbucket data with AI assistants.

Why Use This Server?

  • Minimal Input, Maximum Output Philosophy: Simple identifiers like workspaceSlug and repoSlug are all you need. Each tool returns comprehensive details without requiring extra flags.

  • Rich Code Visualization: Get detailed insights into repositories and code changes with file statistics, diff views, and smart context around code modifications.

  • Secure Local Authentication: Credentials are never stored in the server. The server runs locally, so your tokens never leave your machine and you can request only the permissions you need.

  • Intuitive Markdown Responses: All responses use well-structured Markdown for readability with consistent formatting and navigational links.

  • Full Bitbucket Integration: Access workspaces, repositories, pull requests, comments, code search, and more through a unified interface.


Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • Node.js (>=18.x): Download
  • Bitbucket Cloud Account

Step 1: Authenticate

Choose one of the following authentication methods:

Option A: Bitbucket App Password (Recommended)

Generate one from Bitbucket App Passwords. Minimum permissions:

  • Workspaces: Read
  • Repositories: Read
  • Pull Requests: Read

Option B: Atlassian API Token

Generate one from Atlassian API Tokens.

Note: While the server may function using an Atlassian API Token (via the standard ATLASSIAN_* variables) due to the shared Atlassian account system, Bitbucket App Passwords are the strongly recommended and officially supported method for this integration. App Passwords allow for more granular, Bitbucket-specific permission scopes, enhancing security compared to potentially broader-scoped API Tokens.


Step 2: Configure Credentials

Method A: MCP Config File (Recommended)

Create or edit ~/.mcp/configs.json:

Using Bitbucket App Password:

{
	"bitbucket": {
		"environments": {
			"ATLASSIAN_BITBUCKET_USERNAME": "<your_username>",
			"ATLASSIAN_BITBUCKET_APP_PASSWORD": "<your_app_password>"
		}
	}
}

Using Atlassian API Token:

{
	"bitbucket": {
		"environments": {
			"ATLASSIAN_SITE_NAME": "bitbucket",
			"ATLASSIAN_USER_EMAIL": "<your_email>",
			"ATLASSIAN_API_TOKEN": "<your_api_token>"
		}
	}
}

Note: For backward compatibility, the server will also recognize configurations under the full package name (@aashari/mcp-server-atlassian-bitbucket), the unscoped package name (mcp-server-atlassian-bitbucket), or the atlassian-bitbucket format if the recommended bitbucket key is not found. However, using the short bitbucket key is preferred for new configurations.

Method B: Environment Variables

Pass credentials directly when running the server:

ATLASSIAN_BITBUCKET_USERNAME="<your_username>" \
ATLASSIAN_BITBUCKET_APP_PASSWORD="<your_app_password>" \
npx -y @aashari/mcp-server-atlassian-bitbucket

Step 3: Connect Your AI Assistant

Configure your MCP-compatible client to launch this server.

Claude / Cursor Configuration:

{
	"mcpServers": {
		"bitbucket": {
			"command": "npx",
			"args": ["-y", "@aashari/mcp-server-atlassian-bitbucket"]
		}
	}
}

This configuration launches the server automatically at runtime.
