PostgreSQL MCP Server vs Supabase MCP Server

Both connect Claude to a Postgres database, but from different directions: the official PostgreSQL reference server is a thin, archived reference implementation for querying any Postgres instance, while the Supabase MCP server is actively maintained and speaks to a full Supabase project — database, auth, and storage included. If you're on Supabase, the choice is easy; for a bare Postgres box, weigh the reference server's archived status against its simplicity.
