About wireproxy
wireproxy connects to a WireGuard peer and, instead of creating a system-wide network interface, offers the tunnel as a SOCKS5 or HTTP proxy. Only applications pointed at the proxy send traffic through WireGuard, while the rest of the system keeps its normal connection.
It is a command-line program with a configuration file, and the repository includes Docker, systemd and rc.d files for running it as a service. It suits users who want a single browser or tool to go through a WireGuard VPN without root access or routing changes.
