__mitmproxy__ is an SSL-capable, intercepting HTTP proxy. It provides a console
|
|
|
|
|
interface that allows traffic flows to be inspected and edited on the fly.

|
__mitmdump__ is the command-line version of mitmproxy, with the same
|
|
|
|
|
functionality but without the frills. Think tcpdump for HTTP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both tools are fully documentented in the commandline __--help__ flag, and, in
|
|
|
|
|
the case of __mitmproxy__, a built-in help page accessible through the __?__
|
|
|
|
|
keyboard shortcut.
