Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions · remote - your agent's requests go to veo.mcp.acedata.cloud

license MIT - declared in the repository

pypi package mcp-veo - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.AceDataCloud is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
