Proxy Cat Firefox

Proxy Cat

OpenSource proxy engine: Assign proxies per site, site pattern or tab.

Features & Capabilities

Proxy Cat lets you route traffic with intent. Create reusable proxy profiles, map them to website patterns, and override per tab or tab group. The popup gives a quick dashboard for the current tab, while the options page is built for bulk profile and rule management. Import/export JSON keeps setup portable across machines.

Key features

  • Multiple proxy profiles (HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS/Direct)
  • Wildcard or regex URL matching (prefix with re: for regex)
  • Per-tab overrides from the popup
  • Import/export JSON backups (merge or replace)

Permissions and why they are needed

  • proxy: apply the selected proxy settings per request.
  • tabs: read the active tab URL and apply tab overrides.
  • contextMenus: provide right-click actions for tabs and tab groups.
  • storage: save profiles, rules, and overrides locally.
  • <all_urls>: match user-defined patterns and apply routing to all sites.

Privacy policy Proxy Cat does not collect, transmit, or sell user data. All configuration data (profiles, rules, overrides) is stored locally in the browser. The add-on does not use external analytics or remote servers. Network traffic only goes to the proxy endpoints you configure.

Is Proxy Cat Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Proxy Cat requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Proxy Cat may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
