A side-by-side look at the Blazingcdn MCP and Prometheus 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 Blazingcdn MCP for monitoring work as a local process; choose Prometheus MCP Server for monitoring over a hosted endpoint. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
