What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the problem of inconsistent network connectivity when you need to access external services (like GitHub or Google) by quickly turning a local proxy on and off.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • One-command proxy activation: Exports standard proxy environment variables (http_proxy, https_proxy, all_proxy) to route traffic through a local proxy endpoint (default port 7890).
  • Safe proxy shutdown: Unsets the proxy variables afterward to prevent accidental interference with local network services.
  • Diagnostics included: Provides practical checks to confirm proxy functionality (curl test), verify port listening, and inspect current proxy environment state.
  • Use cases: Installing external Go tools, downloading GitHub release assets, or running a single command with temporary proxy settings.

Quick Start

Source your proxy helper file, enable the proxy, run your external network command (e.g., a GitHub download), then disable the proxy again.
