mcp-dap-server vs fastapi_mcp

mcp-dap-server: The MCP DAP Server bridges Model Context Protocol clients with Debug Adapter Protocol-compatible debuggers, enabling programmatic control over debugging sessions. It offers a comprehensive suite of tools to start/stop sessions, manage breakpoints, control execution, and inspect program state for AI assistants and other MCP clients.; fastapi_mcp: FastAPI-MCP allows you to expose your existing FastAPI endpoints as Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools. It offers native integration with FastAPI, including built-in authentication using existing dependencies, and preserves schemas and documentation.
