Side-by-side comparison of two Model Context Protocol servers — install paths, tools, quality signals, and directory engagement so you can pick the right one for Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients.
MCP server for the FLOX trading systems framework. 30 tools to run backtests, scaffold strategies, validate for lookahead bias, place orders, query PnL via Claude/Cursor. C++23 core with Python/Node/Codon/QuickJS strategy bindings. Same code from backtest to live (CcxtBroker or native connectors). Install: pip install flox-mcp.
Official MCP server for EU VAT validation via the EU Commission's VIES service + offline VAT rates for 45 European countries. Five tools: validatevatnumber (live VIES with company name, address, registration date, and optional consultation number for audit), getcountryvatrates, listeuvatrates, checkvatformat, listsupportedcountries. Four of five tools work offline without an API key (data bundled via eu-vat-rates-data). Open source MIT, every release signed with npm provenance via GitHub Actions OIDC. Install: npx -y vatnode-mcp.
