We’re open-sourcing our privacy proxy CLI

pvcli is an open-source, curl-like command-line tool from Cloudflare Research designed to construct, debug, and test privacy-preserving protocols such as Oblivious HTTP (OHTTP). The post explains why debugging these protocols is difficult, demonstrates a manual OHTTP debugging workflow versus the simplified pvcli workflow with examples and verbose logging, provides installation and usage examples (including mTLS and header handling), and invites contributions and future enhancements.
