Hive Zk Attestation vs Hindsight
A side-by-side look at the Hive Zk Attestation and Hindsight MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Hive Zk Attestation for cryptography work; choose Hindsight for knowledge & memory as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
