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
Sciverse
Use when the user needs academic paper retrieval — searching scientific literature and patent/author/source metadata, finding paper chunks for RAG-style citations, or expanding original text around a known paper offset. Provides six Sciverse tools (search_metadata, semantic_search, list_catalog, list_paper_relations, read_content, get_resource) via the sciverse-mcp-server MCP server.
biomedmcp
Integrated public biomedical research with cited, bounded evidence.
