Field-by-field comparison
Compare the evidence before choosing an MCP.
Each signal stays separate, missing facts remain visible, and the column order follows your selection.

| Client coverage | ||
| Client coverage details | Not documented | Claude Code✓ Local stdio Claude Desktop✓ Local stdio Codex✓ Local stdio VS Code✓ Local stdio Cursor✓ Local stdio OpenCode✓ Local stdio |
| Client coverage note | Local stdio runs on your computer. Streamable HTTP connects to a remotely hosted MCP server. | |
| Access and data | ||
| Authentication | Backblaze B2 application key/credentials as documented by the official server. | No authentication or API key is documented for local stdio. CBM_ALLOWED_ROOT is an optional filesystem containment control; no containment is imposed when it is unset. |
| Cost | Backblaze B2 storage, download/API transaction and model/provider pricing applies. | The MIT-licensed native software lists no service fee. Local storage and package-manager costs are separate. |
| Permissions | Exactly bounded by the connected B2 application key's capabilities, buckets and prefixes; broad keys can enable high-impact object mutation/deletion. | Indexes repositories, queries code and graphs, performs architecture and impact analysis, manages ADRs and watchers, deletes projects, and writes agent configuration, instruction, Skill, and hook files. |
| Data handling | Object names/content and storage metadata requested through tools can be shared with the AI client/provider. | The publisher says processing is local and code does not leave the machine. Indexes, embeddings, memories, SQLite data, and logs persist under the local CBM cache directory. |
| Limitations | ||
| Tradeoffs |
|
|
| Risk context | Object-storage mutation/deletion authority must be tightly scoped, and the server has only a few days of production history. | Indexing can capture sensitive files, while persistent graph data and installer/configuration writes expand local exposure. Set CBM_ALLOWED_ROOT, protect the cache, and use explicit project paths. |
