A side-by-side look at the ApparelHub and Synchronity MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose ApparelHub for e-commerce work as a local process; choose Synchronity for e-commerce over a hosted endpoint. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
APPARELHUB_API_KEY, APPARELHUB_MCP_TELEMETRY, APPARELHUB_MCP_PYTHON.GATEWAY_URL, DEFAULT_SITE_ID, DEBUG.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
