Side-by-side comparison of two Model Context Protocol servers — install paths, tools, quality signals, and directory engagement so you can pick the right one for Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients.
Control an OBSBOT Tiny 2 webcam over USB — pan/tilt/zoom the motorized gimbal in degrees, AI subject tracking, presets, focus/exposure/white-balance, snapshots and recording. Point it at a pixel, or zoom to fit a region of a snapshot it just took. 35 tools (34 on Linux), speaking UVC and the vendor protocol directly with no vendor SDK and no cloud; prebuilt native helpers for Windows, macOS and Linux. npx obsbot-mcp
CNC machine control via Universal G-code Sender (GRBL). Jog axes, home, run G-code files, inspect toolpaths, estimate cycle times. Motion commands require two-step token confirmation — Claude cannot move hardware autonomously.
