## ๐ About
**Network Spy** is a cross-platform Network Proxy and Traffic Analyzer built with **Tauri**, **Rust**, and **React**. It intercepts, decrypts, and analyzes your application's network traffic with a stunning, high-performance interface.
Our goal is to move beyond simple "packet capturing" and provide a tool that truly understands the data being sent across the wire.
---
## โ๏ธ How it Works
Network Spy operates as a **Man-in-the-Middle (MITM)** proxy. It sits between your application and the internet, intercepting traffic to provide deep visibility.
1. **Proxy Interception**: The app starts a high-performance Rust-based proxy server on your local machine.
2. **HTTPS Decryption**: By installing the optional **Network Spy Root CA**, the app can securely decrypt HTTPS traffic using industry-standard certificate pinning bypass techniques.
3. **Capture & Analyze**: Traffic is captured in real-time and passed through our specialized **Superpower Viewers** for automated decoding of GraphQL, LLM streams, Protobuf, and more.
4. **Local Forever**: All data is analyzed and stored locally in a high-speed SQLite database. No traffic ever leaves your machine.

## โจ Key Features
Network Spy is designed around a core philosophy: **Viewers are a Superpower.**
- **๐ High Performance**: Rust-powered proxy engine for zero-latency traffic interception.
- **๐จ Premium UI**: A modern, dark-themed interface built for modern developers.
- **๐งฌ GraphQL Inspector**: Deeply parses queries, variables, and extensions with batched operation support.
- **๐ง LLM Token Analyzer**: The first specialized tool for AI/ML developers to track token costs and stream latency.
- **๐ท๏ธ Intelligent Tagging**: Automatically categorize and search through thousands of requests.
- **๐ฆ Custom Viewer Engine**: Build your own visualizers with a drag-and-drop block builder.
> **Deep Dive**: Learn how to maximize the Custom Viewer Engine for your workflow, including AI-powered generation (Pro Feature), in the [Custom Viewer Guide](./CUSTOM_VIEWER.md).
