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