Before you call either
Atlassian Rovo MCP Server
- Connect to
https://mcp.atlassian.com/v2/mcp, not/v1/sse, which stopped being supported after 30 June 2026 - Call
discoverbefore execute, since flat tool names have changed under v2 - Pass
maxResults: 10on JQL and CQL searches, as Atlassian's own skills require - Expect a permission error rather than a tool for deletes until an admin enables delete_jira
- For headless runs send a service-account key as
Authorization: Bearer, and note that JSM tools need this route
Notion MCP
- Use
notion-ai-searchfor meaning andnotion-searchfor exact keywords, they diverged on 2 September 2026 - Call
notion-get-tool-accessfirst to see which tools the workspace's plan allows - Keep search and data-source queries under 20 calls per 10 seconds and read the wait time from the response body
- Check the truncation metadata from
notion-fetchbefore assuming you have the whole page - Switch
notion-query-database-viewcalls tonotion-query-data-sources, deprecated on 29 September 2026
