A side-by-side look at the Bhoonidhi MCP and Site Intelligence MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Bhoonidhi MCP for aerospace & astrodynamics work as a local process; choose Site Intelligence for aerospace & astrodynamics as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
list_archive, resolve_location, search_scenes.RAPIDAPI_KEY, BEELOCATE_RAPIDAPI_HOST.site_score.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.

list_archiveThe vocabulary of satellites, sensors, and search tokens the portal supports, live from Bhoonidhi.resolve_locationTurns a place name ("Loktak Lake") into a centroid and bounding box. Rejects inputs that are not place names.search_scenesNatural-language scene search over an area and date range. Resolves a casual satellite name to exact tokens, and reports each scene's availability (Ready / Archived / OnOrder / Priced). Stateless — nothing is saved.preview_downloadA dry run: shows what downloading the results would fetch, and what would be skipped, before anything is downloaded.save_queryPersists a search (same arguments as `search_scenes`) to a reusable slug, so it can be downloaded or staged to the cart later.list_queriesLists saved queries as compact summaries: slug, name, date range, satellites, area, and availability.show_queryReturns one saved query by slug, with its scenes.remove_queryDeletes a saved query by slug.auth_statusReports whether a login is configured. Never handles a password or token.download_queryDownloads a saved query's open-access scenes in the background, to a fixed server-configured root. Returns a `job_id` at once.download_statusOne-off check of a background download by `job_id`: bytes downloaded, transfer rate, percent when the size is known, and per-scene detail.download_waitBlocks until a download finishes (or a capped timeout), then reports — the efficient primitive a background watcher loops on.site_scorePaste either block (or both) into your client config, e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. We only show a config when the install command is confirmed.
