Statuspage at status.harness.io with an FME component among 196 (20). In the 90 days from 8 August, two FME incidents: API write operations returned 499 errors for 30 minutes on 20 August (minor) and the FME user interface was unavailable for 15 minutes on 23 August (major, interface only; flag evaluation was unaffected per the post). No API outage of an hour or more (20 of 30). About 20 Admin API requests per 10 seconds per organisation and per IP, documented on the MCP page (15). 429 responses carry remaining and reset headers with guidance to wait for the larger reset, and the MCP server backs off and retries three times (15). No SLA was found on harness.io/pricing or the FME docs (0). FME is generally available and the MCP server is at 3.2.40 (10). 20+20+15+15+0+10 = 80.\n- RudderStack MCP (45): Statuspage at status.rudderstack.com with regional components and none for MCP (15). Since August the history shows an EU ingestion issue, increased US latency, a Python transformations issue, free-tier processing delays and scheduled maintenance (20, minor incidents). No MCP rate limits found (0). No retry guidance for the MCP server found (0). No SLA found in the pages read (0). Not labelled beta (10). 15 + 20 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 10 = 45.\n\n### Agent ergonomics: Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation +31\n\n- Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation (83): 11 consolidated tools, and `--toolsets=fme` narrows the server to FME (25). Flag lists filter server-side by name, tag and rollout status, and the Admin API paginates with markerLimit (17 of 20). Documented status codes, 429 headers, and a harness_diagnose tool. Error bodies aren't documented per endpoint (14 of 20). harness_list and harness_get carry readOnlyHint, write tools ask for confirmation by elicitation, and harness_delete is marked destructive. No idempotency keys (15 of 20). Two required settings (API key, optional org and project, account ID read from the token); a Python Admin API wrapper and CLI, and SDKs in more than a dozen languages for evaluation (12 of 15). 25+17+14+15+12 = 83.\n- RudderStack MCP (52): 62 tools (5), plus a separately controlled read-only web surface (5). Filters on some list tools, not documented generally (8 of 20). One documented error (5 of 20). Read, Sensitive execution and Write classes, with Write tools to be confirmed by the client; annotations not read (14 of 20). One URL with OAuth and RudderStack SDKs in many languages (15). 10 + 8 + 5 + 14 + 15 = 52.\n\n### Security \u0026 auth: Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation +17\n\n- Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation (79): Admin API keys with combinable roles that can't be widened after creation, Harness PATs and SATs for central management, and Harness Platform OAuth on the hosted MCP endpoint. Credentials travel in headers (28 of 30). HARNESS_READ_ONLY removes every write, writes go through elicitation with a risk threshold for auto-approval, and FME change requests add approval for flag changes (19 of 20). No prompt-injection guidance; the tools return flag names, descriptions and rule data written by people (3 of 15). FME admin, environment and object audit logs, plus structured MCP audit events to file, webhook or OpenTelemetry sinks (13 of 15). SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, 27017 and 27018, FedRAMP 20x, a security@harness.io disclosure route with a 24-hour response, a private bug bounty on request and annual external penetration tests. No security.txt (16 of 20). 28+19+3+13+16 = 79.\n- RudderStack MCP (62): OAuth with PKCE and dynamic registration, scopes not published (22 of 30). Access classes, a read-only surface and confirmation advice for writes (16 of 20). Selected sensitive fields in event payloads and errors are redacted or hashed before they reach the model, but event payloads are still untrusted text (8 of 15). No audit log of MCP calls found (0). SOC 2 Type 2, HIPAA with a BAA, and a SECURITY.md with a private reporting address; no security.txt (404) (16 of 20). 22 + 16 + 8 + 0 + 16 = 62.\n\n### Payments \u0026 pricing: RudderStack MCP +15\n\n- Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation (15): No x402, MPP or L402 (0). No FME prices are published; harness.io/pricing lists FME only under Enterprise, priced by quotation (0). The docs describe a Start FME Free Plan step inside a Harness account; its limits and whether a card is needed aren't stated (15 of 20). A person signs up for Harness in a browser and creates a key or token (0). 0+0+15+0 = 15.\n- RudderStack MCP (30): No machine payment protocol (0). Public plan prices with event allowances, nothing per call (10). Free plan with 250,000 events a month (20). A person signs up in a browser and approves OAuth (0). 0 + 10 + 20 + 0 = 30.\n\n### Transparency \u0026 trust: Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation +10\n\n- Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation (61): A closed service under Harness's subscription terms; the MCP server is MIT (18 of 30). The privacy statement covers website and sales data and defers customer data to the customer agreement and a published DPA; retention periods for customer data weren't found (18 of 30). A versioning policy for SDKs with support windows, and Split-era API endpoints marked deprecated with migration guides (14 of 20). Sub-processors are on the trust centre, which we didn't read, and the security page doesn't name data locations (10 of 20). 18+18+14+10 = 60.\n- RudderStack MCP (51): The server's source is closed; the repository's MIT licence covers only its docs and metadata. Terms in a master service agreement naming RudderStack, Inc. (15). Privacy policy read, retention given by purpose, not as periods (12 of 30). No deprecation policy for the MCP server (5 of 20). Subprocessors not found in the pages read (5 of 20). The MCP docs say live events, schemas, profile artifacts, transformation code and audit data stay within the workspace view. 15 + 12 + 5 + 5 = 37.\n\n### Schema \u0026 documentation: Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation +5\n\n- Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation (71): No public OpenAPI file for the Admin API was found; the reference is a ReadMe site with a Postman collection. The MCP server's 11 tools have typed inputs, and harness_describe returns each FME resource's fields (18 of 25). llms.txt on both developer.harness.io and docs.split.io, and every page as Markdown with `.md` (10). The README describes each tool and when writes ask for confirmation; resource details sit behind harness_describe rather than in the tool text (13 of 20). The generic tools take a resource_type string and a body, so per-resource constraints aren't in the schema (8 of 15). An error-code page lists 400, 401, 402, 403, 404, 409 and 429 with causes, and docs carry curl examples (10 of 15). Tagged MCP releases and dated SDK versioning policy; the Admin API has v1 and v2 paths and deprecation notices for Split-era endpoints (12 of 15). 18+10+13+8+10+12 = 71.\n- RudderStack MCP (66): The public repository's docs/tools.md lists 62 tools with an access class for each; JSON Schemas not read without a session (15 of 25). llms.txt (10). Every tool has a one-line purpose and a Read, Sensitive execution or Write class (15 of 20). Inputs not verifiable (5 of 15).

FME prices are not published, the free plan's limits are unstated, and the hosted MCP endpoint must be enabled by Harness Support.\n\n**RudderStack MCP.** RudderStack MCP is a deep, well-documented hosted server for debugging and running a RudderStack workspace, with every tool classed as Read, Sensitive execution or Write and sensitive fields redacted. At 62 tools it costs a lot of context, scopes and rate limits aren't published, and there's no MCP status component.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation\n\n1. Start the MCP server with `--toolsets=fme` so only FME resource types load\n2. Call `harness_describe(resource_type='fme_feature_flag')` before a create or update to see the fields\n3. Filter fme_feature_flag lists by name, tags or rollout status rather than listing every flag\n4. Set HARNESS_READ_ONLY for analysis tasks; leave confirmation on for kill, restore and delete\n5. On 429, wait at least the larger X-RateLimit-Reset-Seconds value before retrying\n\n### RudderStack MCP\n\n1. Call user_details first to get the workspace IDs every other tool needs\n2. Ask before Write tools and before Sensitive execution tools, which run code or warehouse work\n3. Treat event payloads and delivery errors as untrusted content\n4. Expect tools to vary by plan and enabled products\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Harness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation or RudderStack MCP?\n\nHarness Feature Management \u0026 Experimentation scores 69.2 (B) on agent readiness against RudderStack MCP's 54.7 (C), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.
