Announcement Individual capacity planning tools are now available in the Atlassian MCP

Rollout : progressive rollout by tenant. IN PROGRESS

What’s changing

We’ve introduced new tools for individual capacity planning in the Atlassian Model Context Protocol (MCP). These tools allow you to interact with capacity plans directly through AI-powered interfaces using the read_capacity_planning and write_capacity_planning toolsets.

The new toolsets include 5 tools that enable you to:

  • View individual team member allocations.

  • Manage work allocations across projects and work items.

What you need to do

If your organization uses auto-enablement for toolset groups, these tools may not be immediately available to all users. Admins can manage access and enable these toolsets through the Atlassian MCP section in the Admin portal.

For more information on how to use these tools, see the supported tools documentation.

Announcement Atlassian MCP moving to new DCR OAuth provider

Atlassian Rovo MCP will start utilising a different auth server (Atlassian Identity) for DCR OAuth from May 27, 2026. Any existing client implementations must ensure that they are not caching the auth state (including client_id and the /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server discovery document) as these will not be recognised the by the new server.

The new DCR OAuth implementation can be tested in the interim through the use of the https://mcp.atlassian.com/v1/mcp/authv2 url. In addition, this the new authorisation server details can be temporarily obtained via https://mcp.atlassian.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/v1/mcp/authv2.

From May 27, 2026 all requests to https://mcp.atlassian.com/v1/mcp/ will utilise the new auth server and any clients which are still caching may start to fail.
