Compare two AI tools side by side
Put any two skills or MCP servers next to each other: risk grade, what each can access, how popular it is, and how to install it.

| Type | App connector | App connector |
| Est. context load | ~550 tokens / turn (~3 tool schemas, 0.27% of 200k context) | ~550 tokens / turn (~3 tool schemas, 0.27% of 200k context) |
| GitHub stars | 627 | 47.8k |
| Weekly npm downloads | — | 9.3k |
| Local files | No local folder access noted | No local folder access noted |
| Command execution | Runs shell or system commands | Runs shell or system commands |
| Network reach | Connects to outside service API | Local or standard API calls |
| Credentials | No API token required | Requires API key or token |
| Package source | GitHub (orange2ai/claude-code-now) | npm (codebase-memory-mcp) |
| Install command | Source repo only | npx -y codebase-memory-mcp |
| Bottom line | claude-code-now is distributed via GitHub (orange2ai/claude-code-now); review its source code, dependencies, and requested permissions before use. | codebase-memory-mcp (MCP server) requires careful permission scoping — code exposure: Indexing proprietary codebases creates a persistent local knowledge graph—verify data remains on-device and isn't transmitted or cached externally |
