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
freshprobe
Data freshness and endpoint liveness verification for AI agents. Probes external APIs and endpoints before agents act on their data, returning deterministic FRESH/STALE/UNKNOWN verdicts with confidence scores. Analyzes HTTP cache headers, measures latency percentiles (P50/P95/P99), fingerprints content for change detection, checks TLS certificate health, and evaluates against configurable freshness policies. Exposes three MCP tools (freshprobe_check, freshprobe_batch, freshprobe_policy) and includes a built-in skill and agent for contextual triggering. NIST AI RMF aligned. Single Go binary, MIT licensed.
Prometheus MCP Server
MCP server providing Prometheus metrics access and PromQL query execution for AI assistants
