Verdicts

Atlassian Rovo MCP Server

v2 gateway exposes primary tools plus discover and three execute meta-tools, and the rest load on demand. No numeric rate limits or 429 guidance published for the MCP server.

Wrike

The official MCP server has 29 documented tools for search, task and project creation, bulk updates, comments and approvals, and it works on every plan including Free. Permanent access tokens never expire and carry the user's full access, and no SLA, official SDK or deprecation policy was found in the reviewed documentation.

Before you call either

Atlassian Rovo MCP Server

  1. Connect to https://mcp.atlassian.com/v2/mcp, not /v1/sse, which stopped being supported after 30 June 2026
  2. Call discover before execute, since flat tool names have changed under v2
  3. Pass maxResults: 10 on JQL and CQL searches, as Atlassian's own skills require
  4. Expect a permission error rather than a tool for deletes until an admin enables delete_jira
  5. For headless runs send a service-account key as Authorization: Bearer, and note that JSM tools need this route

Wrike

  1. Build API URLs from the host value returned by /oauth2/token. Accounts live on www.wrike.com, app-eu.wrike.com or app-us2.wrike.com, and the wrong host answers 401.
  2. Use https://mcp.wrike.com/v2 only. The older /app/mcp/stream and /app/mcp/sse URLs serve the v1 tool set.
  3. Call search_workflows before setting a status, because update_items and search_items take custom status ids.
  4. Stay under about 400 requests a minute per token or IP and back off exponentially on 429. Use POST /batch for up to 100 operations.
  5. Page task lists with pageSize (up to 1,000) and nextPageToken, and request optional data through fields.
