Install Jira Admin in Augment Code
What you need first
- Augment Code, installed.
- uv, which
gives the
uvxcommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_JIRA_BASE_URL,YOUR_JIRA_EMAIL,YOUR_JIRA_API_TOKEN.
Steps
- Open
~/.codex/config.toml, or create it. The Codex CLI, its IDE extension and the ChatGPT desktop app share this file. - Add this table at the end of the file.
{
"mcpServers": {
"jira-admin-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["jira-admin-mcp==0.1.1"],
"env": { "JIRA_BASE_URL": "YOUR_JIRA_BASE_URL", "JIRA_EMAIL": "YOUR_JIRA_EMAIL", "JIRA_API_TOKEN": "YOUR_JIRA_API_TOKEN" }
}
}
} - Replace
YOUR_JIRA_BASE_URL,YOUR_JIRA_EMAIL,YOUR_JIRA_API_TOKENwith your own values. - Save the file and restart Augment Code.
Check it worked
Ask Augment Code: List the tools of jira-admin-mcp.
If it does not start
- spawn uvx ENOENT
- uv is not on the PATH that Augment Code sees. Install it, or write the
full path of
uvxin the config. - The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong. - Nothing changes after a restart
- The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
