Authentication
Bitbucket Cloud uses Basic Auth with a Bitbucket API Token

Quick setup (Windows)
Run the setup script — it installs dependencies, builds, prompts for credentials, and registers the server in both Claude Desktop and Claude Code:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File setup.ps1
Credentials are written to .env.local (git-ignored). The MCP config entry stays secret-free.

npm install
npm run build
2. Create .env.local
BITBUCKET_WORKSPACE=https://bitbucket.org/your-workspace/workspace/overview/

"command": "node",
"args": ["C:/path/to/bitbucket-mcp-server/dist/index.js"]
