A side-by-side look at the Google Image Search and Hub MCP MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Google Image Search for developer tools work; choose Hub MCP for developer tools over a hosted endpoint. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
