A Tailscale userspace proxy that exposes a SOCKS5 and an HTTP CONNECT proxy.

This is designed to be super lightweight and convenient to use, instead of the tailscale set --exit-node dance.

go install github.com/passcod/tsocks@latest

tsocks

On first run, this will print the Auth URL to authenticate to Tailscale, then a TUI picker to select your exit node. On subsequent runs, it will automatically pick the last exit node you were using. You can override that using --exit-node hostname-or-ip.

When running, it shows the exit node you're connected to, the effective external IPs, and some metrics. You can pause/unpause the proxy (which will stop traffic using it) and switch the exit node midway.
