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.

io.github.MaxEllis/orcaslicer-mcp As a local MCP server: PyPI package
claude mcp add --env "ORCA_API_TOKEN=<YOUR_ORCA_API_TOKEN>" --env "ORCA_PRINTER_API_KEY=<YOUR_ORCA_PRINTER_API_KEY>" --transport stdio orcaslicer-mcp -- uvx orcaslicer-mcpRequires: ORCA_API_TOKEN (secret), ORCA_PRINTER_API_KEY (secret)
Commands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.
Tools each declares
The marketplaces of io.github.MaxEllis/orcaslicer-mcp publish no list of tools, so we do not compare tools.
Settings each asks for
Only E2B asks for
E2B_API_KEY (secret)
Only io.github.MaxEllis/orcaslicer-mcp asks for
ORCA_API_TOKEN (secret)ORCA_API_URLORCA_MCP_ALLOW_KEYSORCA_PRINTER_API_KEY (secret)ORCA_PRINTER_IDORCA_PRINTER_URL
Settings as each marketplace publishes them. Asking for fewer is not better in itself.
