g3proxy
Forward proxy server supporting proxy chaining, protocol inspection, MITM Interception, ICAP adaptation and transparent proxy.
Developed outside the platforms our data source measures, so there is no activity history to score. This says nothing about the project — many unrated projects are actively maintained.

Not available for this project. Our source collects commit history from GitHub only, and g3proxy is developed elsewhere.

Is g3proxy actively maintained?
We cannot measure this one. g3proxy is developed outside the platforms our data source collects activity from, and its repository lives at github.com — so there is no commit history or release cadence here to score.
Read that as missing data, not as a warning. Several of the best-maintained projects in this catalogue are unrated for exactly this reason. To judge it, open the repository and look at the date of the most recent commit yourself.
What g3proxy actually does
g3proxy is a forward proxy server that handles routing traffic through multiple proxy chains, inspecting protocols, and performing man-in-the-middle interception. It also includes support for ICAP adaptation and transparent proxy configurations. It is written in Rust and packaged as a Debian package.
Best fit: It is suitable for administrators needing to route and inspect complex corporate or network traffic through custom proxy chains.
Worth knowing: The software lacks significant community adoption metrics and public release history, which may present risks regarding long-term maintenance and troubleshooting support.
Deployment notes
As a compiled binary packaged for Debian, it typically runs directly on the host system without requiring a complex runtime environment like a database, though you will need to manage its configuration files and systemd service manually.
