## What it is
Box for Root (BFR) is a Magisk/KernelSU/APatch module that bundles proxy cores such as clash, sing-box, v2ray, hysteria, and xray to set up a transparent proxy on rooted Android devices. It manages proxy services via shell scripts and iptables rules, with an optional companion manager app.

## Use cases
- route all Android traffic through a transparent proxy with root
- run clash or sing-box as a system service on a rooted phone
- set up tproxy-based tunneling on Android via Magisk module
- bypass censorship by tunneling device traffic through xray or hysteria2
- auto-start a proxy client at Android boot without a VPN app
- manage v2ray and mihomo services from a rooted terminal

## When to choose
- you have a rooted Android device and want device-wide transparent proxying
- you prefer proxy cores like clash, sing-box, or xray over VPN apps
- you want the proxy to start automatically at boot via Magisk/KernelSU/APatch

## When to avoid
- your device is not rooted
- you want a simple GUI VPN app without shell configuration
- you need a proxy solution for non-Android platforms
