Hi there, 

I am trying to set up atlassian mcp server with my gemini cli but facing an error. Seesm set up / MCP is configure but disconnected and not able to respond back to my queries. 

Gemini CLI's settings.jason 

"

{
"selectedAuthType": "oauth-personal",
"hasSeenIdeIntegrationNudge": true,
"mcpServers": {
"atlassian-mcp": {
"type": "http"
}
}
}" 
And here is what I get when I am starting my gemini cli in command prompt. 

"admin@IN-RWPQC2407M ~ % gemini
Data collection is disabled.
Found stored OAuth token for server 'atlassian-mcp'
Error connecting to MCP server 'atlassian-mcp': Connection failed for 'atlassian-mcp': MCP error -32000: Connection closed
"
sometimes I get 404. 
Can someone please help?

@Sandesh S Bhalerao The Atlassian MCP server isn’t open for third-party clients like Gemini yet. It requires an Atlassian-issued MCP token and a supported client handshake. Gemini CLI can’t authenticate or maintain the SSE connection, which causes the disconnect/404 errors. There’s no public integration path right now, so the Gemini→Atlassian MCP setup won’t work until Atlassian releases a supported auth flow.
