Bitbucket Server MCP

CI PyPI version Python License: MIT

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Atlassian Bitbucket Server / Data Center (Enterprise). Provides 66 tools for reading and writing projects, repositories, branches, files, commits, pull requests, and code search — with opt-in gated deletion operations (disabled by default, see SECURITY.md.

Installation

pip install bitbucket-server-mcp

Or with uv:

uv pip install bitbucket-server-mcp

From source

git clone https://github.com/ManpreetShuann/bitbucket-server-mcp.git
cd bitbucket-server-mcp
uv sync

Via Docker (no local Python required)

cd bitbucket-server-mcp
docker build -t bitbucket-server-mcp .

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.10+
  • Bitbucket Server 7.x+ with HTTP access tokens enabled

Configuration

Set two required environment variables (plus optional ones):

Variable Required Description
BITBUCKET_URL Yes Base URL of your Bitbucket Server (e.g., https://bitbucket.yourcompany.com). Must use HTTPS.
BITBUCKET_TOKEN Yes HTTP access token (create in Bitbucket > User Settings > HTTP Access Tokens)
BITBUCKET_LOG_LEVEL No Log level for stderr output: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR (default: INFO)
BITBUCKET_ALLOW_DANGEROUS_DELETE No Set to 1 to enable Tier-1 delete tools (branch, tag, PR, comment, task, attachment)
BITBUCKET_ALLOW_DESTRUCTIVE_DELETE No Set to 1 to enable Tier-2 delete tools (project, repository). Requires BITBUCKET_ALLOW_DANGEROUS_DELETE=1

Integration

This server runs locally via stdio rather than as a hosted HTTP service. Running locally keeps your Bitbucket access token on your own machine, avoids exposing an authenticated API endpoint over the network, and removes the need to manage server infrastructure or TLS certificates.
