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.

What each says it does

nd-search

In its own words, on Community GitHub marketplaces:

Search the web, read the clean text of a page by URL, crawl a few pages of one site and search Telegram channels through the NeuralDeep Search API with an sk- key. A standard-library Python client takes the key from --api-key or NEURALDEEP_API_KEY, prints compact text or the raw JSON and exits with meaningful codes.

Web Search

In its own words, on Official MCP Registry:

Keyless multi-engine web search, fetch, and clean-Markdown read for AI agents. No API keys.
