v2.2.0 — standalone Windows executable
A single self-contained Windows executable. No Node, no npm, no install.
Use it
Download jira-mcp.exe, put it anywhere (a user folder is fine), then:
claude mcp add jira --scope user -e JIRA_BASE_URL=https://your-jira-host -e JIRA_PAT=YOUR_TOKEN -- C:/path/to/jira-mcp.exe
Restart Claude Code and ask it to run jira_myself to confirm the connection.
Nothing is installed — no admin rights, no registry writes, no PATH changes. It is one file you copy and run. ~88 MB because Node's runtime is embedded.
Know before you download
- Unsigned. SmartScreen may warn on first run, and environments enforcing AppLocker or WDAC may refuse to execute it. If that happens, use the from-source path in the README instead — it needs Node 18+ but no install.
- Windows x64. Rebuild on another platform with
npm run build:exe. - Prefer building it yourself?
npm run build:exethennpm run test:exe.
What's in it
All 21 tools: core Jira read/write, schema discovery (custom fields, createmeta rules, workflows), history and traversal (changelog with time-in-status, multi-hop dependency graph, linked dev activity), and aggregate analysis (workflow behaviour, field distributions, two-set comparison, regex mining across comments).
Verified end-to-end: the binary serves all 21 tools, authenticates with Bearer <PAT>, and passes 7 assertions driven over a real HTTP stack against a mock Jira. The library suite passes 24 assertions across both runtimes.
