AetherProxy

Take full control of your browser’s network traffic with AetherProxy—a modern, lightweight, and privacy-first proxy management extension built for Google Chrome. Whether you are a developer testing local server environments, a security analyst routing traffic through encrypted tunnels, or a power user seeking dynamic domain-based bypasses, AetherProxy provides a fluid, glassmorphic dashboard to configure, test, and manage all your proxy configurations with ease. 🚀 KEY FEATURES 🌍 Live Geo-IP & Flag Indicator: View your current external IP address, ISP, and country flag (e.g., Frankfurt, Germany 🇩🇪) directly inside the extension popup header. Get instant visual confirmation that your proxy tunnel is working without opening another tab to visit lookup sites. 🔍 Interactive Routing Simulator (Rule Debugger): Easily debug complex configurations. Paste any URL into our split-screen visual trace simulator to view a step-by-step pipeline of which wildcard/regex rule matched, why it matched, and the active proxy node it was routed through. 📈 High-DPI Latency History Graph: Keep track of connection health over time. Features a dynamic, DPI-scaled canvas chart showing the last 10 ping latencies with smooth alpha-gradient fills. 💚 Smart Auto-Select & Latency Badges: Run background pings in a loop and dynamically route traffic to the fastest available node. Spot active node performance instantly with green/amber latency badges on the dashboard. 🔄 Dynamic IP Proxy Rotation: Configure background cycling timers to rotate your outgoing proxy nodes sequentially, enhancing anonymity and preventing IP rate-limits. 🔒 Secure Offline QR Sync: Share proxy profiles between laptops or mobile devices instantly using auto-scaling QR codes. Generates 100% locally and offline without transmitting credentials to the cloud. Custom Proxy Profiles: Create and save profiles supporting HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, and SOCKS5. Includes full support for secure username and password authentication. Auto Switch Rules: Build a dynamic routing table using domain wildcard patterns (e.g., *.google.com, localhost) or regular expressions (Regex). Sleek Popup Selector: Switch between System settings, DIRECT mode, Auto Switch, or custom proxy profiles in just two clicks. AMOLED Dark-slate & Glassmorphic Light Design: Seamlessly switch between a premium dark-slate design and a clean light mode layout, with canvas elements hot-reloading theme colors instantly. 🛡️ PRIVACY & SECURITY FIRST 100% Offline & Local: AetherProxy operates completely locally on your computer. It does not contain telemetry, tracking scripts, third-party analytics, or remote database connections. Your browsing history, proxy details, and credentials never leave your browser. No Cloud Dependency: Local QR generation and file imports keep configuration syncing entirely private. No Registration Required: Simply load the extension and start routing. 🛠️ WHEN TO USE AETHERPROXY? Development & Testing: Easily toggle between staging, testing, and production servers. Privacy & Anonymity: Encrypt your traffic headers using secure HTTPS proxies on public Wi-Fi and rotate IPs dynamically. Domain Routing: Bypass local intranets while routing external domains through high-speed SOCKS5 tunnels. 📄 PERMISSIONS & DATA DECLARATIONS To ensure transparency, here is why AetherProxy requests its permissions: proxy: Required to configure the browser's proxy settings and establish routing connections. storage: Used to save your custom proxy profiles and Auto Switch rules locally. webRequest & webRequestAuthProvider: Used to intercept proxy authentication challenges and automatically supply user-configured usernames and passwords. Host Permission (<all_urls>): Required to apply routing rules and authentication filters globally across visited websites.
