Side-by-Side Model Context Protocol Comparison
Base64 vs Geohash
In-depth architectural comparison of the Base64 and Geohash MCP servers. Compare execution transports, security boundaries, tool capabilities, quality scores, and ready-to-paste client installation snippets for Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.
At a Glance & Executive Verdict
Base64
Developer Tools · Remote HTTP/SSE
Quality: 53/100 (Good) | Auth: No auth required
Geohash
Developer Tools · Remote HTTP/SSE
Quality: 44/100 (Fair) | Auth: No auth required
Verdict Summary: Choose Base64 if you need specialized Developer Tools tools running via a hosted cloud SSE transport. Choose Geohash if your workspace requires Developer Tools integration with remote web transport. Both servers can be configured concurrently in your client's
mcpServers manifest.Which MCP Server Should You Choose?
B
Choose Base64 when:
- You need dedicated capabilities in the Developer Tools domain.
- You prefer remote streaming HTTP/SSE transport architecture.
- Your security boundary fits: No auth required (Free / Open Source).
- Primary tools included: base64_encode, base64_decode.
G
Choose Geohash when:
- You need dedicated capabilities in the Developer Tools domain.
- You prefer remote streaming HTTP/SSE transport architecture.
- Your security boundary fits: No auth required (Free / Open Source).
- Primary tools included: encode_geohash, decode_geohash.
Feature & Specification Comparison
Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Base64 Tools (2)
base64_encode
Encode UTF-8 text to Base64 / Base64URL / Base32 / Hex (keyless, offline). Set `variant` (default base64).
base64_decode
Decode Base64 / Base64URL / Base32 / Hex back to UTF-8 text (keyless, offline). Set `variant` (default base64).
Geohash Tools (2)
encode_geohash
Encode a latitude/longitude to a geohash string (keyless, offline). `precision` = number of characters (1-12, default 9; more chars = smaller cell).
decode_geohash
Decode a geohash to its center coordinate and bounding box (SW/NE corners). Keyless, offline.
