A side-by-side look at the Inbody API MCP and Slate MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Inbody API MCP for biology, medicine and bioinformatics work as a local process; choose Slate for biology, medicine and bioinformatics. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
INBODY_LOGIN_ID, INBODY_LOGIN_PW, INBODY_COUNTRY_CODE.get_profile, get_scan_count, list_scans.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
