SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a quick and easy way to check if the MITM proxy is running, view its current operational status, and understand the volume and types of rules and requests it's handling.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Proxy Health Check: Determine if the MITM proxy is active and intercepting traffic.
  • Statistics Overview: Get counts of different rule types (file, API, breakpoints, blocks, redirects) and the total number of intercepted requests.
  • Use Case: Before debugging a network issue, use this Skill to confirm the MITM proxy is operational and to get a baseline of its activity.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I check if my MITM proxy is running and intercepting traffic?

To check if your MITM proxy is running, you can query its status API endpoint to view its operational state, active port, and confirm it is actively intercepting network traffic.

Can I see how many requests and rules my MITM proxy has intercepted?

Yes, you can see intercepted requests and rules by querying the proxy status API, which returns counts for file, API, breakpoint, block, and redirect rules, plus total intercepted requests.

Does checking MITM proxy health require any specific command line tools?

Checking MITM proxy health requires the curl command line tool to query the proxy's status API endpoint and retrieve operational statistics and running state data.

What is the best way to get a baseline of local proxy activity before network debugging?

The best way to get a baseline of local proxy activity is to query the proxy's status API, retrieving running state, port information, and total counts of intercepted requests and active rules.

Why use a status check script for local proxy monitoring instead of manual inspection?

Using a status check script for local proxy monitoring provides a quick, automated way to verify the proxy is operational and retrieve statistics on intercepted requests and rule types without manual inspection.
