What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A macOS ShadowsocksR (SSR) proxy client, a fork of ShadowsocksX-NG-R, used to route traffic through ShadowsocksR servers to bypass censorship. The repository was archived and removed by its owner in October 2020 due to regulation, and is now read-only.

Use cases

  • run a shadowsocksr client on macos
  • bypass the great firewall on a mac
  • configure a pac-based proxy on macos
  • connect to ssr servers from mac

When to choose

  • you specifically need a native macOS ShadowsocksR client and can build it yourself from the archived source

When to avoid

  • you want a maintained or supported proxy client
  • you need a license-clear project (no license is provided)
  • you want Shadowsocks (not R) or modern alternatives like ClashX
  • you cannot compile from source since releases are removed
