Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.

Requires: PDFEDIT_API_KEY (secret)

Commands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.

Only io.github.zp130221/pdfedit-mcp has a remote endpoint we check. How we check endpoints

Tools each declares

Only Alfresco has

copy_node
create_node
delete_node
get_node
get_node_content

list_children
search_nodes
update_node
upload_file

Only io.github.zp130221/pdfedit-mcp has

pdf_batch
pdf_edit
pdf_find
pdf_job
pdf_preview

Both have

None

Tool names as the marketplaces declare them and as Ext Ops observed them on the endpoints (io.github.zp130221/pdfedit-mcp as of 2026-10-22). More tools is not better in itself: compare what each needs for the job.

Settings each asks for

Only Alfresco asks for

ALFRESCO_HOST

Only io.github.zp130221/pdfedit-mcp asks for

PDFEDIT_API_KEY (secret)
PDFEDIT_BASE_URL
