01 · Install Veto
before you install - you'll need
VETO_COMPACT
Environment variables documented in the project's README - it lists which are required and which have defaults.
Claude Code
claude mcp add jigyasudham-veto -- npx -y @jigyasudham/veto Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"jigyasudham-veto": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@jigyasudham/veto"
]
}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.
Using another client? Same JSON, different key

What is Veto?
An MCP server that runs locally on your machine, plugs into Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Antigravity CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Zed, and JetBrains using your existing subscriptions - giving every AI a council of specialist agents, local LLM support, SDD agents, playwright automation, persistent cross-platform memory, a self-learning router that re-tunes its tier thresholds automatically every 20 recorded task…
Is Veto still maintained?
Yes - as of 2026-08-25, its last commit was 2026-08-22 and it shipped 10+ releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.
How do I install Veto?
Run `npx -y @jigyasudham/veto`. The README documents one environment variable (VETO_COMPACT) to set first. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.
Does Veto run locally?
Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
