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.
What each says it does
GitMCP
Tools for interacting with Git repositories.
auto-repo-setup
Evidence-driven repository setup, repair, handoff, and safe Git workflow for Claude Code or Codex. Detects the actual stack from project instructions and manifests instead of assuming Python, ffmpeg, uv, or .env; preserves local work during sync/conflict handling; diagnoses repeated SessionStart output before editing config; and defaults routine startup behavior to AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md or a normal Agent request. Lifecycle hooks are an explicit pre-prompt exception with guarded, idempotent Claude Code setup and runtime-specific Codex verification.
