- Developers testing one service against a QA stack
- Worth noticing
- Docker Compose setup adds proxy variables and a CA certificate to each service; port interception requires Windows administrator approval.
Field notes
Callers can use a gateway URL, let Trailswitch intercept an existing local port, or configure HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, and a CA certificate through Docker Compose. The page also describes a local MCP server for connected clients, with a token and 127.0.0.1 binding by default; its Explain error flow sends a selected failed request to a chosen model after redacting sensitive headers. Port interception prompts for Windows administrator approval.
