Each figure is the marketplace's own and is never added up across marketplaces. A marketplace that publishes no figure shows none: no number is not zero.

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.

How to run each

AKD VaultPDF

No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.

Requires: VAULTPDF_SESSION (secret), VAULTPDF_TOKEN (secret)

Outline MCP Server As a local MCP server: PyPI package

Claude Code
claude mcp add --env "OUTLINE_API_KEY=<YOUR_OUTLINE_API_KEY>" --transport stdio mcp-outline -- uvx mcp-outline

Requires: OUTLINE_API_KEY (secret)

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 AKD VaultPDF asks for

  • VAULTPDF_SESSION (secret)
  • VAULTPDF_TOKEN (secret)

Only Outline MCP Server asks for

  • OUTLINE_API_KEY (secret)
  • OUTLINE_API_URL
  • OUTLINE_DISABLE_AI_TOOLS
  • OUTLINE_DISABLE_DELETE
  • OUTLINE_READ_ONLY
  • OUTLINE_VERIFY_SSL

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