Quick Start (Docker)

docker run --rm -p 8899:8899 \
  -v /tmp/impersonate-certs:/root/.config/impersonate-proxy \
  ghcr.io/psaintelligence/impersonate-proxy:latest

Once started, configure your client to trust the CA and use the proxy:

# Export the generated CA cert to trust the proxy
export SSL_CERT_FILE=/tmp/impersonate-certs/ca.crt

# Issue request through the proxy
curl --silent -x http://127.0.0.1:8899 https://tls.browserleaks.com/json

Quick Start (pip / uv)

Install and start the proxy locally:

# Install via pipx from pypi
pipx install impersonate-proxy

# Or install via uv from source
uv pip install git+https://github.com/psaintelligence/impersonate-proxy.git

# Start the proxy (default: 127.0.0.1:8899)
