pepe

HTTP load generator and latency tool, one binary: a load test with a live dashboard, pepe ping (a request a second, split into DNS, connect, TLS, first byte and download), pepe ramp (find the capacity), pepe api (an OpenAPI spec), pepe flow (a sequence of requests), pepe replay (an access log), pepe compare (two reports). The documentation is at pepe.mhaimdat.com/docs.

pipx install pepe-http    # or: pip install pepe-http
pepe https://example.com

pepe is written in Rust, and this package is the pepe command that fetches it: the first run downloads the release of the same version for your platform (macOS, Linux, Windows) from GitHub releases, checks it against the SHA-256 the release carries, keeps it in your cache directory (~/.cache/pepe-http, ~/Library/Caches/pepe-http on macOS, %LOCALAPPDATA%\pepe-http\Cache on Windows; PEPE_HTTP_CACHE_DIR moves it) and runs it; every later run only runs it. There are no dependencies. python -m pepe_http is the same command.

Upgrade with pipx upgrade pepe-http or pip install -U pepe-http: each version of the package runs the pepe of that version, so pepe self-update does not apply here. The other ways to install, with tab completion and man pages, are on the install page.

As an MCP server, uvx pepe-http mcp (or pepe mcp) serves pepe's modes as tools; it is listed in the MCP registry as io.github.omarmhaimdat/pepe.
