A side-by-side look at the Atest MCP Server and Postmancer MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Atest MCP Server for developer tools work as a local process; choose Postmancer for developer tools as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
http_request, list_collections, list_requests.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
