claude mcp add --transport stdio windy-word-mcp -- npx -y windy-word-mcpCommands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.

Neither one's marketplaces publish a list of tools, so there is nothing to compare.

PLUGIN_ROOT
Only Windy Word asks for
WINDY_WORD_MCP_HOSTWINDY_WORD_MCP_PORTWINDY_WORD_MCP_TIMEOUT_MS
Settings as each marketplace publishes them. Asking for fewer is not better in itself.
