A side-by-side look at the Casefile and Craaft MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Casefile for product management work over a hosted endpoint; choose Craaft for product management. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
get_task, search_tasks, create_task.list_projects, get_board, get_card.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
