A side-by-side look at the Marrow and Mirobody MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Marrow for biology & bioinformatics work over a hosted endpoint; choose Mirobody for biology & bioinformatics as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
health_summary, list_metrics, metric_daily.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
