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
App Store Connect
No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.
Requires: ASC_ISSUER_ID, ASC_KEY_ID, ASC_PRIVATE_KEY (secret)
io.github.gjeltep/app-store-connect-mcp As a local MCP server: PyPI package
claude mcp add --env "APP_STORE_ISSUER_ID=<YOUR_APP_STORE_ISSUER_ID>" --env "APP_STORE_KEY_ID=<YOUR_APP_STORE_KEY_ID>" --env "APP_STORE_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH=<YOUR_APP_STORE_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH>" --transport stdio app-store-connect-mcp -- uvx app-store-connect-mcp
Requires: APP_STORE_ISSUER_ID (secret), APP_STORE_KEY_ID (secret), APP_STORE_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH
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 App Store Connect asks for
ASC_ISSUER_IDASC_KEY_IDASC_PRIVATE_KEY (secret)ASC_PRIVATE_KEY_PATHASC_READ_ONLYASC_TOOLS
Only io.github.gjeltep/app-store-connect-mcp asks for

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