MacOS Terminal is the built-in command-line interface on macOS. Data engineers use it to:
- cURL through Proxied
curl -x socks5h://gateway.proxied.com:1080 https://example.com
- Run Node/Python scrapers with environment variables:
export PROXY_URL="socks5://gateway.proxied.com:1080"
node scrape.js
The socks5h:// scheme routes DNS over the proxy, masking target lookups as well as HTTP traffic for maximum stealth.
