now-sdk-ext-mcp vs TRACE

now-sdk-ext-mcp: now-sdk-ext-mcp is an MCP server that lets AI assistants interact directly with ServiceNow instances: executing background scripts, querying data and running ATF tests. It is built on the MCP TypeScript SDK and the now-sdk-ext-core package.; TRACE: TRACE is a protocol for auditing decision provenance in AI-assisted scientific workflows. It records who proposed what, human or AI, and does not allow the AI to resolve its own proposal.
