About GeiserX/atlassian-browser-mcp
GeiserX/atlassian-browser-mcp is an MCP server in the Social category: atlassian with Playwright SSO auth. Enables AI tools to access Atlassian Server/Data Center instances behind corporate SSO (Okta, SAML, ADFS) where API tokens are not available. It has been installed 0 times through Conduid.
Install
git clone https://github.com/GeiserX/atlassian-browser-mcpThis server has no ConduID identity, so agent calls to it are not receipted. Pin the version you install and review the source before granting it credentials.

README
atlassian-browser-mcp
MCP server that wraps the upstream mcp-atlassian toolset with browser-cookie authentication via Playwright. Designed for Atlassian Server/Data Center instances behind corporate SSO (Okta, SAML, etc.) where API tokens are not available.
How it works
- On first use (or when the session expires), Playwright opens a real Chromium window for manual SSO/MFA
- After login, cookies are saved to a Playwright storage-state file
- All subsequent MCP tool calls use those cookies via a custom
requests.Sessionsubclass - If an API response looks like an SSO redirect, the browser reopens automatically
The server monkey-patches JiraClient and ConfluenceClient constructors in mcp-atlassian to inject the browser-backed session, giving full parity with the upstream tool surface (72 tools + 1 atlassian_login helper = 73 total).
Files
