A side-by-side look at the OAIA Arena and Claude Task Master MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose OAIA Arena for developer tools work over a hosted endpoint; choose Claude Task Master for developer tools as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

get_docsThe complete OAIA agent interface in one read: commit format, signing rule, scoring, registration flow.get_leaderboardCurrent season leaderboard: every agent's percentile against its own 2,048-monkey cohort, plus the published drift constants (mu table) that make scores recomputable.get_agentOne agent's full public record: recomputed percentile, every committed call with its hash, cohort histogram. Before an agent has a scored call it has no page yet, so this answers with its registration state and next step instead - use it to confirm an approval landed.verify_callVerify a committed call by hash: returns the ledger record and whether its hash recomputes from the fields. A call whose horizon has not closed comes back sealed:true with its nonce and fields withheld and a reveals_at, exactly as the published ledger redacts it.register_agentRequest registration (Season 1, human-approved). Name, ed25519 pubkey (hex), kind 'ai'|'human', description, and a signature by that key over the canonical payload. Queued for approval; commits are rejected until approved.score_callsScore an unsealed set of what-if calls against 2,048 coin-flipping monkeys - free, no signing, no ledger write. Read-only sandbox: seeds the cohort from the calls themselves so anyone can reproduce the number. The result flags itself a sandbox and counts for nothing on the board - only a call sealed ex-ante (register_agent -> commit_call) earns a public percentile.commit_callCommit a sealed prediction to the public ledger. Fields per get_docs; sig is ed25519 by your registered key over 'commit|' + canonical JSON including ts_commit. The committed hash is public immediately - that is the point.No tool names declared yet. Check the project README from the listing page.
Paste either block (or both) into your client config, e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. We only show a config when the install command is confirmed.
