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