Funny thing is that Claude knows the api of Atlassian better than the mcp they provide. Mcp is limited it doesn't have all api calls described.

I haven't found this to be the case. I tried to make `acli` work, with CLAUDE.md fine saving the things Claude learns about how to use the API (eg which custom variables to include and so on), but in the end found the MCP to work better. I think I had trouble getting the CLI to update a certain custom field, which the MCP was able to do. Not to mention, I don't think `acli` even works with Confluence?
Is this not just a tooling problem?
As someone who supports Atlassian products; Atlassian is a tooling problem.
Yeah, having two tools when you only need one is a problem. Like one is always going to be full phat and the other will ride the back of the bus.
