Scope's first public alpha: a local desktop HTTP(S) debugger built with Rust, Tauri and React.

Scope traffic inspector

Included

  • HTTP(S) capture with a generated local CA, saved SQLite sessions, HAR and Scope archive import/export.
  • Request/response breakpoints, live editing, originals and replay as a new outbound request.
  • Android app discovery with ADB, device-wide proxy mode, and selected-process Frida profiles.
  • Local traffic analysis, session comparison and seven MCP tools with explicit session sharing and opt-in replay.

Install

Download Scope-v0.1.0-alpha.1-macOS-arm64.zip, verify it against SHA256SUMS.txt, extract it and move Scope.app to Applications. Apple Silicon is the tested release target. The app has an ad-hoc signature and is not Apple-notarized; follow the installation instructions if macOS blocks the first launch.

Proxy capture, sessions and MCP are included. Optional native Frida binaries are installed directly from upstream with the shipped helper; Python 3.9+ with venv is required for this step:

python3 "/Applications/Scope.app/Contents/Resources/resources/device/install-runtime.py" --abi arm64-v8a

Use the actual Android ABI and the command shown by Scope. This creates a private runtime; it does not modify system Python or an Android device. Android setup and compatibility.

Validation and limits

The release preparation includes 16 Rust tests, two packaging tests, three optional-installer tests, strict Clippy, native response editing/original inspection, rooted Android emulator capture/cleanup and an actual packaged MCP/capture/persistence smoke check. Recorded evidence.

This alpha buffers up to 16 MiB per request/response body. WebSocket frames, HTTP/3 and streaming capture are not implemented. Replay sends directly and does not trigger proxy breakpoints. Windows/Linux builds have CI coverage; their native UI/device workflows are not yet verified, so this release publishes the tested macOS artifact. Physical-device and long-session compatibility remain open work. An in-flight replay can temporarily appear as ERR before its actual response arrives (tracked display issue #16). Known dependency findings.

Source and community

The source ZIP is generated from this exact tag; checksums and a build manifest accompany the artifacts. Scope is AGPL-3.0-or-later and preserves HTTP Toolkit/Frida attribution and all included dependency/font notices.
