Stop showing your API
keys to your agents.
Veil is a local proxy. It gives your agents fake keys and swaps in the real ones at the socket. They never see them.

how it works
-
01$veil init
Pulls keys out of .env and MCP configs into your OS keychain. Leaves convincing-looking fakes behind.
-
02$veil run claude
Runs your agent through the local proxy. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Aider, curl — anything that respects HTTP_PROXY.
-
03at the socket
Each outgoing request gets its fake swapped for the real key before leaving your machine. Every swap is logged to SQLite — grep it if you want.
