Side-by-side MCP evidence comparison
Evidence field	Tencent CloudBase MCPShortlist candidate	Terraform MCPMCP100 Recommended
Task fit
Best for	CloudBase developers who want AI-assisted management of apps, databases, functions, storage and related CloudBase resources.	Connect compatible AI clients to HashiCorp's documented MCP capabilities.
Not ideal for	Users who only need read-only CloudBase documentation or who cannot isolate cloud credentials.	Users who need a fully reviewed MCP100 recommendation today
Avoid when	Do not supply broad Tencent Cloud credentials to an untrusted client or allow deployment/database mutations without confirmation.	Permissions, credentials, and connected data cannot be tested with least privilege

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	Local/hosted configurations can use Tencent Cloud SecretId/SecretKey and optional session token/environment identifiers as documented.	HCP Terraform/TFE API tokens; remote client may pass per-user TFE_TOKEN
Cost	Tencent Cloud/CloudBase resource, API, storage/compute and AI-provider charges can apply.	HCP/TFE/run costs may apply
Permissions	Potentially broad cloud control: database writes, resource management and deployment authority depend on the supplied cloud credentials and enabled tools.	HCP Terraform/TFE RBAC
Data handling	CloudBase application data, database content and resource metadata requested by tools can be exposed to the AI client/provider.	registry/HCP/TFE data may reach connected MCP client/LLM
Limitations
Tradeoffs	Promoted after strict re-audit: canonical identity and MCP-native/publisher-backed implementation are sufficiently evidenced, with real workflow value, usable documentation, understandable permissions, plausible maintenance, and no unresolved security veto. Still not strong enough for Recommended.	Publisher attribution supports discovery, but does not replace an independent permissions and usability review.
Risk context	Broad cloud-management credentials and write/deploy tools make least privilege and manual confirmation important.	stdio/localhost defaults; strict CORS; TLS verify on; rate limits; ENABLE_TF_OPERATIONS=false by default
