How to run each
Priors
No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.
ArcID As a remote MCP server
claude mcp add --transport http arcid-mcp https://mcp.arcusid.com/mcp
Commands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.
Only ArcID 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
