Verdict

Pick mcp-atlassian (community Jira/Confluence) if you prefer the more popular, battle-tested option, and you want a local (stdio) server that keeps data on your machine.

Pick Meta Ads MCP if you want a hosted/remote server with nothing to install, and you need the broadest set of tools.

Add mcp-atlassian (community Jira/Confluence)

Install / run
uvx mcp-atlassian

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-atlassian-community-jira-confluence": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-atlassian"
      ],
      "env": {
        "JIRA_URL": "https://your-company.atlassian.net",
        "JIRA_USERNAME": "<your-email@company.com>",
        "JIRA_API_TOKEN": "<your-jira-api-token>",
        "CONFLUENCE_URL": "https://your-company.atlassian.net/wiki",
        "CONFLUENCE_USERNAME": "<your-email@company.com>",
        "CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN": "<your-confluence-api-token>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Requires `uv` (the Python package runner). Install it from https://docs.astral.sh/uv/ if `uvx` is not found.

Add Meta Ads MCP

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "meta-ads-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://meta-ads.mcp.pipeboard.co/"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop connects to remote servers through the `mcp-remote` proxy (installed on first run via npx). Restart Claude Desktop after saving.
