Which MCP Server Should You Choose?
O
Choose Onto when:
You need dedicated capabilities in the Developer Tools domain.
You prefer local stdio subprocess transport architecture.
Your security boundary fits: No auth required (Free / Open Source).
Returns clean Markdown for a URL with metadata about the extraction (sizes, reduction %, cache state).
score_url
Returns the AIO (AI-readability) score for a URL — 0-100 with a letter grade, hallucination risk, and a structured list of penalties / benefits / recommendations.
read_and_score
Returns clean Markdown plus the AIO score in one call. Recommended default for agentic workflows.
batch
Process many URLs in **one call**. **N credits** — one per URL in the list after the list is known. Failed URLs (`ok: false`) are refunded. Default mode `read-and-score` is still N, not 2N. Give an explicit list or a base URL whose pages are auto-discovered.
map_site
Discover a site's URLs (sitemap → on-page links) without reading them. **1 credit per call** (not per discovered URL) — use it to plan which pages to read or batch next.
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Onto is categorized under Developer Tools and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, UI5 MCP Server belongs to Developer Tools using local stdio subprocess. Select Onto when you need capabilities focused on developer tools and UI5 MCP Server when you require tools for developer tools.
Return the structured data a page already declares — JSON-LD, OpenGraph, and meta tags — plus the AIO score. Deterministic; no fields are inferred by a model.
