A free desktop debugger for testing Xray-core configurations and tracing why a load balancer chose a particular outbound.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-21 issue.

Why it surfaced

Xray Studio exposes the candidates, scores, probe results, and rejection reasons that Xray normally hides, then lets you simulate blackholes, refused connections, latency, packet loss, and other real network failures. It runs locally, uploads no configurations, and keeps the explanation tied to a patched version of the real balancer code.
