Jitbit Helpdesk MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI assistants search and read support tickets from Jitbit Helpdesk. Works with both SaaS and on-premise installations.

Setup

Two options:

1. Hosted HTTP endpoint (recommended) — built into Jitbit, no installation required. Available on SaaS and on-premise installs running version 11.21 or later. See the Jitbit MCP docs.
2. Local npm package — this repo, runs locally via npx. Use this if your on-premise Jitbit is older than 11.21.

Option 1: Hosted HTTP endpoint

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http jitbit-helpdesk https://yourcompany.jitbit.com/api/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer your-api-token"
