Which MCP Server Should You Choose?
Choose Tnl when:
You need dedicated capabilities in the Legal domain.
You prefer local stdio subprocess transport architecture.
Your security boundary fits: No auth required (Free / Open Source).
Primary tools included: Structured contract schema with fixed fields (id, scope, paths, behaviors, etc.), Agent-driven proposal and human approval workflow for contract edits, Self-attestation by agents mapping MUST clauses to code or tests.
MCP server for TNL (Typed Natural Language): per-feature English contracts for AI coding agents. 6 tools — getimpactedtnls, retrievetnl, trace, proposetnldiff, approvetnldiff, verify — let agents look up relevant contracts, propose contract edits, and verify implementations against them. Drop-in via npx typed-nl init for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini.
C++26 paper reference MCP (cpp26-ref) backing a Claude Code plugin: lookuppaper, fuzzy search, compilerstatus over a 216-paper ISO/IEC 14882:2026 corpus. The plugin's skill + reviewer subagent use these tools to bias Claude toward reflection, contracts, std::execution senders, embed, expansion statements — even when the local compiler lags. 95% on a held 39-task eval gate.
Tnl is categorized under Legal and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Cpp26 Adapter belongs to Legal using local stdio subprocess. Select Tnl when you need capabilities focused on legal and Cpp26 Adapter when you require tools for legal.
