Postcodes vs Server Everything
A side-by-side look at the Postcodes and Server Everything MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Postcodes for location services work as a local process; choose Server Everything for other tools and integrations as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
