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 note | Local stdio runs on your computer. Streamable HTTP connects to a remotely hosted MCP server. | |
| Access and data | ||
| Authentication | Uses Google authentication/credentials documented by the official server; exact credential flow must be bound from current official/local evidence. | Hosted MCP uses browser OAuth and grants organization access to the MCP client. Project scope, read-only mode, and feature groups are encoded in URL query parameters. Enterprise-managed authentication is GA for eligible Team and Enterprise organizations. Access remains scoped to each user's existing Supabase role and permissions. |
| Cost | Google Analytics/API quotas and model/provider costs apply; no extra MCP entitlement should be inferred without publisher evidence. | The MCP server is open source; normal Supabase plan, database, branch, Edge Function, storage, and usage charges apply. Branching and some storage operations require a paid plan. |
| Permissions | Read-only according to current Google Analytics MCP documentation; it does not edit Analytics settings. | Without project_ref the hosted server can access all projects in the authorized organization. With project_ref it is limited to one project. read_only=true uses a read-only Postgres user for SQL and disables listed mutation tools. Feature groups can further narrow exposed tools. |
| Data handling | Analytics reporting/property data can be shared with the connected AI client/provider. | Enabled tools may return schemas, table data from executed queries, logs, security/performance advisors, project metadata, publishable keys, types, and Edge Function source. Hosted mode sends tool requests through Supabase's MCP service. |
| Limitations | ||
| Tradeoffs |
|
|
| Risk context | Main concerns are analytics-data confidentiality and credential scoping; the reviewed server is not a write/admin surface. | Unscoped or write-enabled access can affect every project in an organization, execute SQL, apply migrations, deploy functions, or manage branches. Always set project_ref and read_only=true first, minimize feature groups, and avoid production data. |
