What Pax is and is not
- It is
- A Mac proxy client. It takes over network traffic with TUN so Claude Code and Codex use your proxy without environment variables, manages your own relay API settings, and reads local logs to track token usage and estimated cost.
- It is not
- Pax provides no proxy connections and recommends no relay or connection provider. It does not supply AI service accounts. You bring your own connections, relays and accounts.
- Interface language
- The app interface is currently Chinese only.
