## What it is
mubeng is a fast CLI tool written in Go that checks the availability of proxies from a list and rotates your IP address per request via a local rotating proxy server. It supports HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4/4A/5, and Amazon API Gateway proxy protocols.

## Use cases
- check if proxies in a list are alive
- rotate IP address on every HTTP request
- use as upstream proxy in Burp Suite
- chain proxies with OWASP ZAP
- scrape websites without getting IP-banned
- validate and filter working proxies from a large proxy list

## When to choose
- you need per-request IP rotation from your own proxy pool
- you want a fast, cross-platform CLI proxy checker
- you need SOCKS and HTTP proxy support in one tool
- you want to integrate rotation with security testing tools like Burp or ZAP

## When to avoid
- you need a managed residential proxy service rather than rotating your own proxies
- you need a GUI-based proxy manager
- you need non-HTTP protocols like SMTP through the rotator
