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.

claude mcp add --env "VMANOMALY_BEARER_TOKEN=<YOUR_VMANOMALY_BEARER_TOKEN>" --env "VMANOMALY_ENDPOINT=<YOUR_VMANOMALY_ENDPOINT>" --transport stdio mcp-vmanomaly -- docker run -i --rm -e VMANOMALY_BEARER_TOKEN -e VMANOMALY_ENDPOINT ghcr.io/victoriametrics/mcp-vmanomaly:0.5.1Requires: VMANOMALY_BEARER_TOKEN (secret), VMANOMALY_ENDPOINT
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 loki asks for
LOKI_URL
Only io.github.VictoriaMetrics/mcp-vmanomaly asks for

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