ChatGPT proxy launchers

These utilities launch the ChatGPT desktop app through a local proxy by setting environment variables, avoiding system-wide proxy or TUN configuration. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from—it predates the index or its members are undated. ChatGPT-Overlay-Fix leads on traction with 3 stars, followed by chatgpt-codex-connection-doctor with 2 stars and chatgpt-proxy-manager with 0 stars.

Entry timeline

ENTRY TIMELINE

SEP 2026: 5
SEP 2026

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.
