ProxyKit CLI (standalone)
=========================

This archive ships proxykit, proxy-engine, and proxykit-mcp — no desktop app.

Quick start
-----------
1. Extract this archive anywhere on your PATH, or add its bin/ folder to PATH.
2. Run: proxykit doctor
3. Headless proxy: proxykit start --headless --port 8888

Connect an IDE (MCP)
--------------------
proxykit-mcp is a Model Context Protocol server (stdio) that lets MCP-capable
IDEs and agents drive the local proxy engine. Point your IDE's MCP config at the
bundled binary, for example:

  {
    "mcpServers": {
      "proxykit": { "command": "/path/to/bin/proxykit-mcp" }
    }
  }

Start the engine first (`proxykit start --headless`); the MCP server reuses the
same loopback control API and auth token.

Install via package manager (recommended)
-----------------------------------------
  macOS:   brew install getproxykit/tap/proxykit-cli
  Windows: winget install ProxyKit.ProxyKitCLI
