GOST (GO Simple Tunnel) is a Go-based tunneling and proxy tool supporting HTTP/HTTPS/HTTP2/SOCKS4/SOCKS5/Shadowsocks protocols plus QUIC, KCP, SSH, and TLS transports. It supports multi-level proxy chains, TCP/UDP port forwarding, transparent proxying, load balancing, and TUN/TAP devices.
Use cases
- set up a socks5 or http proxy server
- tunnel traffic through multiple chained proxies
- forward local tcp or udp ports to a remote host
- bypass network censorship with encrypted tunnels
- tunnel udp over tcp or quic
- run a shadowsocks server
- build a transparent proxy gateway on linux
When to choose
- you need a single binary supporting many proxy and tunnel protocols
- you want multi-hop proxy chains with mixed protocol types
- you need port forwarding combined with proxying in one tool
When to avoid
- you only need a simple http proxy and prefer minimal config
- you need a GUI-managed proxy client
- you want a widely audited tool for high-security threat models
