  title: HTTP Toolkit Server client Config API
  description: The backend REST API exposed by the HTTP Toolkit server, used to start and manage the local HTTP/HTTPS proxy, launch intercepted applications, manage interception rules, handle certificate operations, and send requests through the proxy. The server listens on localhost (default port 45456) and uses token-based authentication via the Authorization header.
