Each figure is the marketplace's own and is never added up across marketplaces. A marketplace that publishes no figure shows none: no number is not zero.

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

Mapbox

In its own words, on Docker MCP Catalog:

Transform any AI agent into a geospatially-aware system with Mapbox APIs. Provides geocoding, POI search, routing, travel time matrices, isochrones, and static map generation.

Lodging Decision

In its own words, on Official MCP Registry:

Agent-facing lodging decision tool. Non-sensitive categories only. Alpha, unauthenticated.

How to run each

Mapbox As a local MCP server: Docker image

Claude Code
claude mcp add --env "MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN=<YOUR_MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN>" --transport stdio mapbox -- docker run -i --rm -e MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN mcp/mapbox

Requires: MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN (secret)

Lodging Decision As a remote MCP server

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http lodging-decision-mcp https://di-001-a-lodging-decision-mcp.scenicstay.workers.dev/mcp

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

Both have

None

Tool names as the marketplaces declare them and as Ext Ops observed them on the endpoints (Lodging Decision as of 2026-10-12). More tools is not better in itself: compare what each needs for the job.

Settings each asks for

The marketplaces of Lodging Decision publish no settings it asks for, so we do not compare settings.

Data comes from the Docker MCP Catalog (desktop.docker.com/mcp/catalog) and Docker Hub. Data comes from the Official MCP Registry (registry.modelcontextprotocol.io), CC0 1.0. Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
