What each says it does

The Deployer
Check if a repo will deploy, plan a deploy to your own cloud, and see status, logs and redeploys.
How to run each
Bult.ai
No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.
The Deployer As a remote MCP server
claude mcp add --transport http deployer https://app.thedploy.com/api/v1/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>"Requires: THEDEPLOYER_API_KEY (secret), Authorization header
Commands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.
Only The Deployer has a remote endpoint we check. How we check endpoints
Tools each declares
Neither one's marketplaces publish a list of tools, so there is nothing to compare.
Settings each asks for
Only Bult.ai asks for
BULT_API_TOKEN (secret)BULT_API_URL
Only The Deployer asks for
THEDEPLOYER_API_KEY (secret)
Settings as each marketplace publishes them. Asking for fewer is not better in itself.
