How we ranked these

Nobody paid to be here. The order comes from each tool’s verdict: an official server from the vendor ranks first, then how central the tool is to the job, a listed Claude connector, then a hosted server with OAuth sign-in that is generally available, then the number of documented tools. Safety flags push a tool down. Every fact links back to a dated verdict with its sources.
