CLUSTER MACOS-VPN-WIREGUARD · 22 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-09

macOS per-app WireGuard VPN clients

The cluster consists of macOS-native VPN clients that use menu-bar interfaces to route selected applications or domains through WireGuard tunnels while leaving all other traffic on the normal connection. The dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from, as only zero dated entries exist. Traction leaders are AutoConnect with 8 stars, followed by aws-auto-connect and kerio-split with 2 stars each.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
