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