history
Project history and usage
mubeng is a Go-based proxy utility organized around two jobs: running a local proxy server that rotates outbound proxy IPs, and checking whether entries in a proxy list are usable. The public GitHub repository was created in 2021 under the mubeng organization and describes the tool as an "incredibly fast proxy checker & IP rotator".
Project history
The project grew around operational proxy-pool workflows rather than a general web server role. Its README documents support for HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS v4(A), SOCKS v5, and Amazon API Gateway proxy schemes, plus examples for Burp Suite upstream proxying and OWASP ZAP proxy chaining. The changelog records later additions such as proxy server authentication, live-reloading watched proxy files, HTTPS proxy protocol support, and helper functions for proxy formatting.
How it is used
In practice, users point mubeng at a proxy list and either ask it to validate the pool or expose a local address that rotates requests through the pool. Its package-manager niche is security, scraping, testing, and bug-bounty-adjacent command-line work where rotating or validating many proxies is useful.
