Best for
  • Developers blocked by OAuth app registration or admin approval
  • Users across Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, and Codex CLI
  • Self-hosters who want tokens and data kept local
  • Developers, content creators, and project teams using Atlassian Cloud
  • Teams that want Atlassian access inside ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or VS Code
  • Users who need natural-language search, write, and cross-product workflows
Not for
  • Workspaces whose acceptable-use policy forbids unofficial clients (consider the OAuth hosted tier)
  • Compliance-sensitive environments uncomfortable reusing personal browser session credentials
  • Teams needing official Slack support (not affiliated with Slack Technologies)
  • Users without an Atlassian Cloud site or relevant product permissions
  • Deployments requiring a self-hosted MCP server
  • Users unwilling to grant an AI client access to Atlassian data or actions
  • Jira Service Management or Bitbucket Cloud workflows requiring OAuth authentication
Required permissions
  • Requires Slack browser session token (xoxc-) and cookie (xoxd-); the agent's footprint equals your browser session exactly
  • On macOS, Chrome auto-extraction reads Chrome's local LevelDB and the Chrome Safe Storage key from the Keychain
  • Write tools (send, react, mark read) carry MCP destructive annotations so clients can gate them
  • Jira and Confluence provide read, write, and search permission groups
  • Jira Service Management provides read and write access through API tokens only
  • Bitbucket Cloud provides read and write access through scoped API tokens only
  • Compass is available through OAuth 2.1 only
  • The first OAuth installer for a site must have access to the Atlassian apps requested by the MCP scopes
  • Organization administrators can manage domain controls, API-token authentication, app access, and audit logs
Risks and side effects
  • Automating your own session is a gray area under Slack's terms — this is an unofficial client
  • No app install appears in the admin panel, but traffic is still subject to workspace compliance exports, DLP, and retention
  • Session tokens expire roughly every 1–2 weeks, requiring re-extraction or the hosted OAuth tier
  • Tokens equate to your full Slack session; a leak means a session leak
  • AI clients can perform Jira, Confluence, Jira Service Management, Bitbucket, and Compass actions on the user’s behalf
  • Prompt injection, indirect prompt injection, and tool-poisoning attacks may cause data exfiltration or unintended changes
  • Use least privilege, scoped tokens, and minimal project or workspace access
  • Require human confirmation for high-impact or destructive actions and monitor audit logs
