A side-by-side look at the Huddo and Windy Word MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Huddo for speech-to-text work as a local process; choose Windy Word for speech-to-text as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
HUDDO_HOME.get_platform, list_paste_strategies, get_active_paste_strategy.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
