description: Start a cc-trace capture session - launches mitmweb and provides instructions for running Claude Code through the proxy
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Start a cc-trace capture session to intercept and debug Claude Code API requests. This command sets up the monitoring environment and provides step-by-step instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Command Does
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Verify Setup**
|
||||
- Check if mitmproxy is installed
|
||||
- Verify certificate exists and is trusted
|
||||
- Confirm prerequisites are met
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Start Monitoring**
|
||||
- Launch mitmweb with optimal settings
|
||||
- Configure traffic filtering for Anthropic API
|
||||
- Set up flow capture to disk
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Provide Launch Instructions**
|
||||
- Show how to run Claude Code through proxy
|
||||
- Display browser URL for viewing traffic
|
||||
- Explain capture session workflow
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Monitor Session**
|
||||
- Track active proxy connections
|
||||
- Display captured request count
|
||||
- Show real-time traffic statistics
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Start a basic capture session
|
||||
/cc-trace-start
|
||||
|
||||
# Start with custom flow file location
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --output ~/my-flows.mitm
|
||||
|
||||
# Start with custom ports
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --port 9090 --web-port 9091
|
||||
|
||||
# Start without saving flows to disk
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --no-save
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
When you use this command, Claude will:
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Pre-flight Checks
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Verify mitmproxy installation
|
||||
if ! command -v mitmproxy &> /dev/null; then
|
||||
echo "❌ mitmproxy not installed. Run /cc-trace-setup first."
|
||||
exit 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
# Check certificate exists
|
||||
if [ ! -f ~/.mitmproxy/mitmproxy-ca-cert.pem ]; then
|
||||
echo "❌ Certificate not found. Run /cc-trace-setup first."
|
||||
exit 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
# Check ports are available
|
||||
if lsof -i :8080 &> /dev/null; then
|
||||
echo "⚠️ Port 8080 is already in use"
|
||||
echo "Suggestion: Use --port 9090 or kill the conflicting process"
|
||||
exit 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
if lsof -i :8081 &> /dev/null; then
|
||||
echo "⚠️ Port 8081 is already in use"
|
||||
echo "Suggestion: Use --web-port 9091 or kill the conflicting process"
|
||||
exit 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Launch mitmweb
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Default configuration
|
||||
LISTEN_PORT=8080
|
||||
WEB_PORT=8081
|
||||
FLOW_FILE="$HOME/claude-flows-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).mitm"
|
||||
FILTER="~d api.anthropic.com"
|
||||
|
||||
# Start mitmweb in background
|
||||
echo "🚀 Starting mitmweb..."
|
||||
echo " Listen port: $LISTEN_PORT"
|
||||
echo " Web interface: http://127.0.0.1:$WEB_PORT"
|
||||
echo " Flow file: $FLOW_FILE"
|
||||
echo ""
|
||||
|
||||
mitmweb \
|
||||
--listen-port $LISTEN_PORT \
|
||||
--web-port $WEB_PORT \
|
||||
--set flow_filter="$FILTER" \
|
||||
--save-stream-file "$FLOW_FILE" \
|
||||
--set web_open_browser=false \
|
||||
--set web_password=cc-trace \
|
||||
&> /tmp/mitmweb.log &
|
||||
|
||||
MITM_PID=$!
|
||||
echo "✓ mitmweb started (PID: $MITM_PID)"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: Wait for mitmweb to be Ready
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
echo "⏳ Waiting for mitmweb to start..."
|
||||
|
||||
for i in {1..10}; do
|
||||
if curl -s http://127.0.0.1:$WEB_PORT > /dev/null 2>&1; then
|
||||
echo "✓ mitmweb is ready!"
|
||||
break
|
||||
fi
|
||||
sleep 1
|
||||
echo -n "."
|
||||
done
|
||||
echo ""
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

🛑 Stopping capture session...
|
||||
✓ mitmweb stopped
|
||||
📁 Flows saved to ~/claude-flows-20250114-153045.mitm
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Port Already in Use
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Find what's using the port
|
||||
lsof -i :8080
|
||||
lsof -i :8081
|
||||
|
||||
# Use different ports
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --port 9090 --web-port 9091
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### mitmweb Won't Start
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check mitmproxy installation
|
||||
mitmproxy --version
|
||||
|
||||
# Check for errors
|
||||
tail -f /tmp/mitmweb.log
|
||||
|
||||
# Verify certificate
|
||||
ls -la ~/.mitmproxy/mitmproxy-ca-cert.pem
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### No Traffic Appearing
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Verify proxy environment in Claude terminal
|
||||
echo $HTTPS_PROXY # Should be http://127.0.0.1:8080
|
||||
echo $NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS # Should point to cert
|
||||
|
||||
# Test proxy connection
|
||||
curl -x http://127.0.0.1:8080 https://api.anthropic.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Browser Interface Not Loading
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check if mitmweb is running
|
||||
ps aux | grep mitmweb
|
||||
|
||||
# Test web interface
|
||||
curl http://127.0.0.1:8081
|
||||
|
||||
# Try different browser or clear cache
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Notes
|
||||
|
||||
⚠️ **Active Capture Session Warnings:**
|
||||
|
||||
- **All HTTPS traffic** from proxied applications is intercepted
|
||||
- **API keys** are visible in captured requests
|
||||
- **File contents** sent to Claude are captured
|
||||
- **Conversation history** is recorded
|
||||
- **TLS verification** is disabled (security risk)
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendations:**
|
||||
- Run capture sessions only when needed
|
||||
- Use on isolated development machines
|
||||
- Delete flow files after analysis
|
||||
- Never commit flow files to version control
|
||||
- Review captured data before sharing
|
||||
|
||||
## Related Commands
|
||||
|
||||
- `/cc-trace-setup` - Initial setup for cc-trace
|
||||
- Use `cc-trace` agent for interactive analysis
|
||||
|
||||
## Advanced Usage
|
||||
|
||||
### Analyze Captured Flows
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# View last prompt
|
||||
bash scripts/show-last-prompt.sh ~/claude-flows-*.mitm
|
||||
|
||||
# Extract slash commands
|
||||
python scripts/extract-slash-commands.py ~/claude-flows-*.mitm
|
||||
|
||||
# Parse streaming responses
|
||||
cat response.txt | npx tsx scripts/parse-streamed-response.ts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Filter Specific Traffic
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Only POST requests
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --filter "~d api.anthropic.com & ~m POST"
|
||||
|
||||
# Only /messages endpoint
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --filter "~u /messages"
|
||||
|
||||
# Large responses only
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --filter "~bs 50000"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Multiple Concurrent Sessions
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Session 1: Development work
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --port 8080 --web-port 8081 --output ~/dev-flows.mitm
|
||||
|
||||
# Session 2: Testing work (different terminal)
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --port 9090 --web-port 9091 --output ~/test-flows.mitm
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Impact
|
||||
|
||||
- **Minimal overhead**: ~10-50ms per request
|
||||
- **Memory usage**: ~100MB + flow storage
|
||||
- **CPU usage**: <5% on modern hardware
|
||||
- **Disk usage**: ~1-10MB per flow file (varies by session length)
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Reference
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Standard session
|
||||
/cc-trace-start
|
||||
|
||||
# Custom ports (if defaults in use)
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --port 9090 --web-port 9091
|
||||
|
||||
# Save to specific location
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --output ~/important-capture.mitm
|
||||
|
||||
# Memory only (no disk save)
|
||||
/cc-trace-start --no-save
|
||||
|
||||
# Stop session
|
||||
Ctrl+C (in the terminal running mitmweb)
|
||||
```
|
||||
