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

genpptx

In its own words, on Claude Code: claude-plugins-community:

Generate PowerPoint presentations (.pptx) from content files (meeting notes, memos) using Claude Code. Simply provide a content file and the plugin automatically designs a story-driven slide structure, generates a spec.yaml, and produces both PPTX and HTML output — no API key required. Key features: - AI-driven slide design: story structure (Problem → Solution → Impact) - 10 built-in layouts: cover, section, content, two-column, table, chart, image-text, image-full, summary, closing - Theme system: extract design tokens from existing PPTX files to create custom themes - HTML output: view presentations in a browser without PowerPoint - Read & analyze existing PPTX files for revision

PuzzleTide

In its own words, on Official MCP Registry:

Word search, crossword, and sudoku generators, printable PDF worksheets, and verifiable LLM evals.
