A side-by-side look at the Git Courer and P4mcp Server MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Git Courer for version control work; choose P4mcp Server for version control as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
status, diff, commit.P4PORT, P4USER, P4CLIENT.Actions, server_info, current_user.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
