HTTP/HTTPS proxy debugging tools

A cluster of proxy tools for intercepting, monitoring, and debugging HTTP/HTTPS and WebSocket traffic, often used for security testing, API analysis, or network inspection. The dated history is sparse, with isolated entries in 2008 and 2019, then several entries from late 2024 through mid-2026. Traction is led by lunel (18 stars), followed by apipeek (7 stars) and Librium (3 stars).
