A side-by-side look at the Apiany MCP and MCP Server MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Apiany MCP for finance & fintech work as a local process; choose MCP Server for finance & fintech over a hosted endpoint. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
APIANY_BASE_URL, APIANY_API_KEY.list_models, search_models, get_model.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
