Comparison

market-brief vs TimeBase

market-brief is no longer listed on any marketplace we read: these are its last known data, as of 2026‑10‑15.

market-brief is a plugin bundle for AI coding tools published by beepboop2025. No marketplace we read lists it any more. TimeBase is an MCP server published by epam. Marketplaces we read that list it: 3 (Official MCP Registry, Copilot CLI: github/awesome-copilot, Community GitHub marketplaces). As of our marketplace pass on 2026-10-21. A plugin in this pair is no longer listed on any marketplace we read, so search engines are asked not to index the page.

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.

How to run each

market-brief

No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.

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

The marketplaces of market-brief publish no settings it asks for, so we do not compare settings.
