How to run each
pw
No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.
io.github.kubeshop/testkube-mcp As a local MCP server: Docker image
claude mcp add --env "TK_ACCESS_TOKEN=<YOUR_TK_ACCESS_TOKEN>" --env "TK_ENV_ID=<YOUR_TK_ENV_ID>" --env "TK_ORG_ID=<YOUR_TK_ORG_ID>" --transport stdio testkube -- docker run -i --rm -e TK_ACCESS_TOKEN -e TK_ENV_ID -e TK_ORG_ID mcp/testkubeRequires: TK_ACCESS_TOKEN (secret), TK_ENV_ID (secret), TK_ORG_ID (secret)
Commands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.
Only io.github.kubeshop/testkube-mcp has a remote endpoint we check. How we check endpoints
Tools each declares
The marketplaces of pw publish no list of tools, so we do not compare tools.
Settings each asks for
Only pw asks for
BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY (secret)BROWSERSTACK_USERNAMETESTRAIL_API_KEY (secret)TESTRAIL_URLTESTRAIL_USER
Only io.github.kubeshop/testkube-mcp asks for

Settings as each marketplace publishes them. Asking for fewer is not better in itself.
