## CLI

```
s5p                                         # direct, listen :1080
s5p -C socks5://127.0.0.1:9050             # through Tor
s5p -C socks5://tor:9050,http://px:8080    # Tor + HTTP proxy
s5p -c config/example.yaml                  # from config file
s5p -l 0.0.0.0:9999                         # custom listen address
s5p -t 30                                   # 30s per-hop timeout
s5p -v                                      # debug logging
s5p -q                                      # errors only
```

## Proxy URLs

```
socks5://host:port
socks5://user:pass@host:port
socks4://host:port
http://host:port
http://user:pass@host:port
```

## Testing

```bash
# Check exit IP
curl -x socks5h://127.0.0.1:1080 https://httpbin.org/ip

# Verbose curl
curl -v -x socks5h://127.0.0.1:1080 https://example.com

# With timeout
curl --max-time 30 -x socks5h://127.0.0.1:1080 https://example.com
```

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom | Check |
|---------|-------|
| Connection refused | Is Tor running? `ss -tlnp \| grep 9050` |
| Timeout | Increase `-t`, check proxy reachability |
| DNS leak | Use `socks5h://` (not `socks5://`) in client |
| Auth failed | Verify credentials in proxy URL |
