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.

How to run each

membase As a Claude Code plugin

Claude Code
/plugin marketplace add aristoapp/membase
/plugin install membase@membase-plugins

io.github.PhilflowIO/dav-mcp As a local MCP server: npm package

Claude Code
claude mcp add --env "CALDAV_PASSWORD=<YOUR_CALDAV_PASSWORD>" --env "CALDAV_SERVER_URL=<YOUR_CALDAV_SERVER_URL>" --env "CALDAV_USERNAME=<YOUR_CALDAV_USERNAME>" --env "GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=<YOUR_GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET>" --env "GOOGLE_REFRESH_TOKEN=<YOUR_GOOGLE_REFRESH_TOKEN>" --transport stdio dav-mcp -- npx -y dav-mcp

Requires: CALDAV_PASSWORD (secret), CALDAV_SERVER_URL, CALDAV_USERNAME, GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET (secret), GOOGLE_REFRESH_TOKEN (secret)

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

Tools each declares

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

Settings each asks for

Only membase asks for

  • MEMBASE_CLAUDE_PLUGIN

Only io.github.PhilflowIO/dav-mcp asks for

  • AUTH_METHOD
  • CALDAV_PASSWORD (secret)
  • CALDAV_SERVER_URL
  • CALDAV_USERNAME
  • GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID
  • GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET (secret)
  • GOOGLE_REFRESH_TOKEN (secret)
  • GOOGLE_SERVER_URL
  • GOOGLE_TOKEN_URL
  • GOOGLE_USER

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

Data comes from public marketplace files in GitHub repositories of their authors. Data comes from the Official MCP Registry (registry.modelcontextprotocol.io), CC0 1.0. Package data comes from the public npm registry (registry.npmjs.org). Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
