Httpstat

httpstat is a command-line utility for executing HTTP requests and analyzing network timing, response metadata, and connection performance. It serves as a diagnostic tool and debugger for inspecting HTTP headers and response bodies through a terminal interface.

The tool focuses on performance analysis by measuring the latency of secure web requests, including the overhead of the TLS handshake and general connection timing. It provides color-coded output to visually separate request and response metadata for human analysis.

The utility covers API integration testing and network troubleshooting, with capabilities for managing custom headers, request bodies from local files, and proxy routing via environment variables. It also includes security configurations for managing encrypted connections, such as handling self-signed certificates and client-side credentials.
