wireproxy is a userspace WireGuard client written in Go that exposes a WireGuard connection as a SOCKS5/HTTP proxy or TCP tunnels, without requiring root or a network interface. It supports static TCP routing, transparent TLS (SNI) proxying, daemon mode, and health status endpoints.

Use cases

• route browser traffic through a wireguard peer via a socks5 proxy
• use wireguard without root or creating a network interface
• proxy only certain sites through a wireguard tunnel
• run a wireguard tunnel in the background as a daemon
• expose a wireguard connection as an http proxy
• statically route TCP traffic through a wireguard peer

When to choose

• you need selective per-application proxying over wireguard rather than a full VPN tunnel
• you cannot or do not want to use root privileges or kernel network interfaces
• you want a lightweight userspace wireguard client with socks5/http proxy support

When to avoid

• you need a full system VPN with a tun interface
• you need UDP proxying, which is not yet supported in SOCKS5
• you need a graphical VPN client
