## What it is
A monorepo of Node.js HTTP Agent implementations that route HTTP/HTTPS requests through proxies using various protocols (HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS, PAC). The high-level `proxy-agent` package wraps the lower-level agents for common use cases.

## Use cases
- make http requests through a proxy in node.js
- route fetch or axios traffic through a socks proxy
- resolve pac files to pick a proxy automatically
- connect to https sites via an http proxy tunnel
- add proxy support to a node.js http client

## When to choose
- you need node.js http/https requests to go through a proxy
- you need socks or PAC-based proxy support in node
- you want maintained, modular proxy agent packages

## When to avoid
- you need proxying outside node.js (browser, python, etc.)
- you need a full proxy server rather than a client-side agent
- you need non-HTTP protocols tunneled through proxies

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: http-client, proxy, networking
- domain: networking, developer-tools, backend
- platform: -
- tags: http-proxy, socks-proxy, pac, http-agent, monorepo, nodejs, javascript, typescript
