joomla-mcp-server vs google_workspace_mcp
joomla-mcp-server: This Joomla component provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server over HTTP JSON-RPC, enabling AI clients like Claude Desktop and Cursor to interact with Joomla content. It offers a rich set of tools for managing articles, categories, tags, modules, menus, media, and extensions through Joomla's Web Services API.; google_workspace_mcp: This production-ready MCP server enables full natural language control over Google Workspace services like Calendar, Drive, Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Forms, Tasks, and Chat through MCP clients, AI assistants, and developer tools. It is the most feature-complete Google Workspace MCP server, now supporting Remote OAuth2.1 multi-user operation and one-click Claude installation.
TL;DR
Enabling AI agents (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cursor) to directly create, update, and manage Joomla articles and other content.
- You want one server for Gmail, Drive, Calendar, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Forms, Tasks and Chat instead of one per service.
- Several people will use it: it supports multi-user OAuth 2.0 and 2.1 with bearer tokens.
- You want to limit exposure with tool tiers such as `--tool-tier core`.
- You only need Sheets: a focused server exposes fewer tools and less account access.
- You cannot create your own Google Cloud OAuth credentials: setup requires them.
- Giving an assistant access to Gmail and Drive is not acceptable in your organisation.
