A side-by-side look at the Onekgpd MCP and Ucsc Genome MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Onekgpd MCP for biology & bioinformatics work over a hosted endpoint; choose Ucsc Genome for biology & bioinformatics as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
hg38, mm39, danRer11.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
