Verdicts

HubSpot API + MCP

Remote MCP server GA since 13 April 2026, OAuth 2.1 with PKCE only. Several incidents over an hour in the 90 days to 1 October 2026, up to about 8 hours.

Twenty API + MCP

Six MCP meta-tools by default with schemas loaded on demand, and ?mode=direct for clients that load lazily. No status page found.

Before you call either

HubSpot API + MCP

  1. Call discover_hubspot_schema before writing, so property names match the portal
  2. Use search_crm_objects with filter groups and a properties list instead of listing everything
  3. Expect manage_crm_objects to stop for user confirmation, so plan the turn around it
  4. Read policyName on a 429 to tell a 10-second burst from the daily cap
  5. Ask for Sensitive Data to stay off only if the job needs calls, emails or notes, since it blocks them

Twenty API + MCP

  1. Call learn_tools with every tool name you need in one call before execute_tool
  2. Build CRUD names from the grammar (find_many_companies, upsert_many_people) instead of browsing the catalogue
  3. Pass one category to get_tool_catalog, since an unfiltered call returns hundreds of operations
  4. Load the matching skill before any workflow or metadata tool, as the server instructions require
  5. Batch up to 60 records a call to stay inside 100 requests a minute
