Installation

Using npx (Recommended)

The easiest way to use this MCP server is directly with npx:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bitbucket": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@nexus2520/bitbucket-mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "BITBUCKET_USERNAME": "your-username",
        "BITBUCKET_APP_PASSWORD": "your-app-password"
      }
    }
  }
}

For Bitbucket Server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bitbucket": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@nexus2520/bitbucket-mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "BITBUCKET_USERNAME": "[email protected]",
        "BITBUCKET_TOKEN": "your-http-access-token",
        "BITBUCKET_BASE_URL": "https://bitbucket.yourcompany.com"
      }
    }
  }
}

From Source

1. Clone or download this repository
2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Build the TypeScript code:

   npm run build

Authentication Setup

This server uses Bitbucket App Passwords for authentication.

Creating an App Password

1. Log in to your Bitbucket account
2. Navigate to: https://bitbucket.org/account/settings/app-passwords/
3. Click "Create app password"
4. Give it a descriptive label (e.g., "MCP Server")
5. Select the following permissions:
   • Account: Read
   • Repositories: Read, Write
   • Pull requests: Read, Write
6. Click "Create"
7. Important: Copy the generated password immediately (you won't be able to see it again!)

Running the Setup Script

node scripts/setup-auth.js

This will guide you through the authentication setup process.

Configuration

Add the server to your MCP settings file (usually located at ~/.vscode-server/data/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bitbucket": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/bitbucket-mcp-server/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "BITBUCKET_USERNAME": "your-username",
        "BITBUCKET_APP_PASSWORD": "your-app-password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace:

• /absolute/path/to/bitbucket-mcp-server with the actual path to this directory
• your-username with your Bitbucket username (not email)
• your-app-password with the app password you created

For Bitbucket Server, use:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bitbucket": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/bitbucket-mcp-server/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "BITBUCKET_USERNAME": "[email protected]",
        "BITBUCKET_TOKEN": "your-http-access-token",
        "BITBUCKET_BASE_URL": "https://bitbucket.yourcompany.com"
      }
    }
  }
}

Important for Bitbucket Server users:

• Use your full email address as the username (e.g., "[email protected]")
• This is required for approval/review actions to work correctly

      ]
    }
  ],
  "total_count": 15,
  "start": 0,
  "limit": 50,
  "has_more": false
}

Note: This tool currently only works with Bitbucket Server. Bitbucket Cloud support is planned for a future release.

List Pull Requests

{
  "tool": "list_pull_requests",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",  // Required - your project key
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "state": "OPEN",  // Optional: OPEN, MERGED, DECLINED, ALL (default: OPEN)
    "author": "username",  // Optional: filter by author (see note below)
    "limit": 25,  // Optional: max results per page (default: 25)
    "start": 0  // Optional: pagination start index (default: 0)
  }
}

Returns a paginated list of pull requests with:

• Array of pull requests with same details as get_pull_request
• Total count of matching PRs
• Pagination info (has_more, next_start)

Note on Author Filter:

• For Bitbucket Cloud: Use the username (e.g., "johndoe")

Create Pull Request

{
  "tool": "create_pull_request",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "title": "Add new feature",
    "source_branch": "feature/new-feature",
    "destination_branch": "main",
    "description": "This PR adds a new feature...",  // Optional
    "reviewers": ["john.doe", "jane.smith"],  // Optional
    "close_source_branch": true  // Optional (default: false)
  }
}

Update Pull Request

{
  "tool": "update_pull_request",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "title": "Updated title",  // Optional
    "description": "Updated description",  // Optional
    "destination_branch": "develop",  // Optional
    "reviewers": ["new.reviewer"]  // Optional - see note below
  }
}

Important Note on Reviewers:

• When updating a PR without specifying the reviewers parameter, existing reviewers and their approval status are preserved
• When providing the reviewers parameter:
  • The reviewer list is replaced with the new list
  • For reviewers that already exist on the PR, their approval status is preserved
  • New reviewers are added without approval status
• This prevents accidentally removing reviewers when you only want to update the PR description or title

Add Comment

Add a comment to a pull request, either as a general comment or inline on specific code:

// General comment
{
  "tool": "add_comment",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "comment_text": "Great work on this PR!"
  }
}

// Inline comment on specific line
{
  "tool": "add_comment",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "comment_text": "Consider extracting this into a separate function",
    "file_path": "src/utils/helpers.js",
    "line_number": 42,
    "line_type": "CONTEXT"  // ADDED, REMOVED, or CONTEXT
  }
}

// Reply to existing comment
{
  "tool": "add_comment",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "comment_text": "I agree with this suggestion",
    "parent_comment_id": 456
  }
}

// Add comment with code suggestion (single line)
{
  "tool": "add_comment",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "comment_text": "This variable name could be more descriptive.",
    "file_path": "src/utils/helpers.js",
    "line_number": 42,
    "line_type": "CONTEXT",
    "suggestion": "const userAuthenticationToken = token;"
  }
}

// Add comment with multi-line code suggestion
{
  "tool": "add_comment",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "comment_text": "This function could be simplified using array methods.",
    "file_path": "src/utils/calculations.js",
    "line_number": 50,
    "suggestion_end_line": 55,
    "line_type": "CONTEXT",
    "suggestion": "function calculateTotal(items) {\n  return items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price, 0);\n}"
  }
}

The suggestion feature formats comments using GitHub-style markdown suggestion blocks that Bitbucket can render. When adding a suggestion:

• suggestion is required and contains the replacement code
• file_path and line_number are required when using suggestions
• suggestion_end_line is optional and used for multi-line suggestions (defaults to line_number)
• The comment will be formatted with a ````suggestion` markdown block that may be applicable in the Bitbucket UI

Using Code Snippets Instead of Line Numbers

The add_comment tool now supports finding line numbers automatically using code snippets. This is especially useful when AI tools analyze diffs and may struggle with exact line numbers:

// Add comment using code snippet
{
  "tool": "add_comment",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "comment_text": "This variable name could be more descriptive",
    "file_path": "src/components/Button.res",
    "code_snippet": "let isDisabled = false",
    "search_context": {
      "before": ["let onClick = () => {"],
      "after": ["setLoading(true)"]
    }
  }
}

// Handle multiple matches with strategy
{
  "tool": "add_comment",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "comment_text": "Consider extracting this",
    "file_path": "src/utils/helpers.js",
    "code_snippet": "return result;",
    "search_context": {
      "before": ["const result = calculate();"],
      "after": ["}"]
    },
    "match_strategy": "best"  // Auto-select highest confidence match
  }
}

Code Snippet Parameters:

• code_snippet: The exact code line to find (alternative to line_number)
• search_context: Optional context to disambiguate multiple matches
  • before: Array of lines that should appear before the target
  • after: Array of lines that should appear after the target
• match_strategy: How to handle multiple matches
  • "strict" (default): Fail with error showing all matches
  • "best": Auto-select the highest confidence match

Error Response for Multiple Matches (strict mode):

{
  "error": {
    "code": "MULTIPLE_MATCHES_FOUND",
    "message": "Code snippet 'return result;' found in 3 locations",
    "occurrences": [
      {
        "line_number": 42,
        "file_path": "src/utils/helpers.js",
        "preview": "  const result = calculate();\n> return result;\n}",
        "confidence": 0.9,
        "line_type": "ADDED"
      },
      // ... more matches
    ],
    "suggestion": "To resolve, either:\n1. Add more context...\n2. Use match_strategy: 'best'...\n3. Use line_number directly"
  }
}

This feature is particularly useful for:

• AI-powered code review tools that analyze diffs
• Scripts that automatically add comments based on code patterns
• Avoiding line number confusion in large diffs

Note on comment replies:

• Use parent_comment_id to reply to any comment (general or inline)
• In get_pull_request responses:
  • Bitbucket Server shows replies nested in a replies array
  • Bitbucket Cloud shows a parent_id field for reply comments
• You can reply to replies, creating nested conversations

Note on inline comments:

• file_path: The path to the file as shown in the diff
• line_number: The line number as shown in the diff
• line_type:
  • ADDED - For newly added lines (green in diff)
  • REMOVED - For deleted lines (red in diff)
  • CONTEXT - For unchanged context lines

Add Comment - Complete Usage Guide

The add_comment tool supports multiple scenarios. Here's when and how to use each approach:

1. General PR Comments (No file/line)

• Use when: Making overall feedback about the PR
• Required params: comment_text only
• Example: "LGTM!", "Please update the documentation"

2. Reply to Existing Comments

• Use when: Continuing a conversation thread
• Required params: comment_text, parent_comment_id
• Works for both general and inline comment replies

3. Inline Comments with Line Number

• Use when: You know the exact line number from the diff
• Required params: comment_text, file_path, line_number
• Optional: line_type (defaults to CONTEXT)

4. Inline Comments with Code Snippet

• Use when: You have the code but not the line number (common for AI tools)
• Required params: comment_text, file_path, code_snippet
• The tool will automatically find the line number
• Add search_context if the code appears multiple times
• Use match_strategy: "best" to auto-select when multiple matches exist

5. Code Suggestions

• Use when: Proposing specific code changes
• Required params: comment_text, file_path, line_number, suggestion
• For multi-line: also add suggestion_end_line
• Creates applicable suggestion blocks in Bitbucket UI

Decision Flow for AI/Automated Tools:

1. Do you want to suggest code changes?
   → Use suggestion with line_number
   
2. Do you have the exact line number?
   → Use line_number directly
   
3. Do you have the code snippet but not line number?
   → Use code_snippet (add search_context if needed)
   
4. Is it a general comment about the PR?
   → Use comment_text only
   
5. Are you replying to another comment?
   → Add parent_comment_id

Common Pitfalls to Avoid:

• Don't use both line_number and code_snippet - pick one
• Suggestions always need file_path and line_number
• Code snippets must match exactly (including whitespace)
• REMOVED lines reference the source file, ADDED/CONTEXT reference the destination

This tool is particularly useful for:

• Reviewing all changes in a PR before merging
• Understanding the development history of a PR
• Checking commit messages for quality
• Verifying authorship of changes
• Analyzing PR complexity by commit count

Get Pull Request Diff

Get the diff/changes for a pull request with optional filtering capabilities:

// Get full diff (default behavior)
{
  "tool": "get_pull_request_diff",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "context_lines": 5  // Optional (default: 3)
  }
}

// Exclude specific file types
{
  "tool": "get_pull_request_diff",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "exclude_patterns": ["*.lock", "*.svg", "node_modules/**", "*.min.js"]
  }
}

// Include only specific file types
{
  "tool": "get_pull_request_diff",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "include_patterns": ["*.res", "*.resi", "src/**/*.js"]
  }
}

// Get diff for a specific file only
{
  "tool": "get_pull_request_diff",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "file_path": "src/components/Button.res"
  }
}

// Combine filters
{
  "tool": "get_pull_request_diff",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123,
    "include_patterns": ["src/**/*"],
    "exclude_patterns": ["*.test.js", "*.spec.js"]
  }
}

Filtering Options:

• include_patterns: Array of glob patterns to include (whitelist)
• exclude_patterns: Array of glob patterns to exclude (blacklist)
• file_path: Get diff for a specific file only
• Patterns support standard glob syntax (e.g., *.js, src/**/*.res, !test/**)

Response includes filtering metadata:

{
  "message": "Pull request diff retrieved successfully",
  "pull_request_id": 123,
  "diff": "..filtered diff content..",
  "filter_metadata": {
    "total_files": 15,
    "included_files": 12,
    "excluded_files": 3,
    "excluded_file_list": ["package-lock.json", "logo.svg", "yarn.lock"],
    "filters_applied": {
      "exclude_patterns": ["*.lock", "*.svg"]
    }
  }
}

Approve Pull Request

{
  "tool": "approve_pull_request",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "pull_request_id": 123
  }
}

Request Changes

{
  "tool": "request_changes",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",

}

List Directory Content

{
  "tool": "list_directory_content",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "path": "src/components",  // Optional (defaults to root)
    "branch": "main"  // Optional (defaults to default branch)
  }
}

Returns directory listing with:

• Path and branch information
• Array of contents with:
  • Name
  • Type (file or directory)
  • Size (for files)
  • Full path
• Total items count

Get File Content

{
  "tool": "get_file_content",
  "arguments": {
    "workspace": "PROJ",
    "repository": "my-repo",
    "file_path": "src/index.ts",
    "branch": "main",  // Optional (defaults to default branch)
    "start_line": 1,  // Optional: starting line (1-based, use negative for from end)
    "line_count": 100,  // Optional: number of lines to return
    "full_content": false  // Optional: force full content (default: false)
  }
}

Smart Truncation Features:

• Automatically truncates large files (>50KB) to prevent token overload
• Default line counts based on file type:
  • Config files (.yml, .json): 200 lines
  • Documentation (.md, .txt): 300 lines
  • Code files (.ts, .js, .py): 500 lines
  • Log files: Last 100 lines
• Use start_line: -50 to get last 50 lines (tail functionality)
• Files larger than 1MB require explicit full_content: true or line parameters

Returns file content with:

• File path and branch
• File size and encoding
• Content (full or truncated based on parameters)
• Line information (if truncated):
  • Total lines in file
  • Range of returned lines
  • Truncation indicator
• Last modified information (commit, author, date)

Example responses:

// Small file - returns full content
{
  "file_path": "package.json",
  "branch": "main",
  "size": 1234,
  "encoding": "utf-8",
  "content": "{\n  \"name\": \"my-project\",\n  ...",
  "last_modified": {
    "commit_id": "abc123",
    "author": "John Doe",
    "date": "2025-01-21T10:00:00Z"
  }
}

// Large file - automatically truncated
{
  "file_path": "src/components/LargeComponent.tsx",
  "branch": "main",
  "size": 125000,
  "encoding": "utf-8",
  "content": "... first 500 lines ...",
  "line_info": {
    "total_lines": 3500,
    "returned_lines": {
      "start": 1,
      "end": 500
    },
    "truncated": true,
    "message": "Showing lines 1-500 of 3500. File size: 122.1KB"
  }
}
