About
Socksy lets you instantly switch a SOCKS5 proxy on or off with a single click — no digging through Chrome settings. Features: One-click proxy toggle directly from the toolbar Supports any SOCKS5 server (SSH tunnel, VPS, etc.) Whitelist — specify domains that always bypass the proxy (e.g. local services, banking sites) Wildcard support in whitelist (*.example.com) Settings are saved between sessions How it works: Configure your SOCKS5 server host and port once, then toggle the proxy on and off as needed. When the proxy is active, all browser traffic is routed through your server — except domains on your whitelist. Typical use case: Run ssh -D 1080 [email protected] to create an SSH tunnel, point Socksy at localhost:1080, and switch it on whenever you need a secure connection.
