Mediator
Mediator is a free, open-source desktop proxy for debugging gRPC traffic on Linux, macOS and Windows. It can redirect requests to beta or test servers without changes to client code. When an API schema is available, it parses gRPC requests and responses and presents binary messages as a JSON tree. Schemas can come from server reflection, proto source roots compiled with protoc, or FileDescriptorSet files. Matching server rules also allow gRPC and HTTPS decoding after the client installs the root certificate generated by that Mediator installation. Certificates are available in DER and PEM formats, and another installation requires its own certificate. The proxy listens on port 8888 by default. Downloads include Windows MSI, macOS DMG, Apple Silicon macOS DMG and Linux deb packages. Setup examples cover Java, Objective-C/iOS and Go clients. The repository identifies Apache-2.0 as its license.
