# rustunnel
`rustunnel` is a cross-platform Rust CLI tool for lab and development tunneling over HTTPS with mutual TLS (mTLS) and an application-level auth token. It exposes a local SOCKS5 proxy on the connector side and forwards traffic only after HTTPS, certificate, and auth checks succeed.
The tool is designed for local labs, development environments, and controlled testing where you own or are authorized to operate both endpoints. It is not a production-grade tunnel or a mechanism for accessing systems without permission.
## What it does
- **Listener** (`rustunnel listen`) — binds an HTTPS server that accepts mTLS connections from connectors, validates an auth token, then upgrades the connection to a persistent binary-framed tunnel.
- **Connector** (`rustunnel connect`) — connects to the listener over HTTPS with mTLS, authenticates, then exposes a local SOCKS5 proxy that forwards traffic through the tunnel.
- **Credential generation** (`rustunnel generate`) — creates a self-signed CA, server certificate, client certificate, and auth token for a local session.
- **Connection keys** (`rustunnel keygen`) — bundles all credential material into a single base64-encoded string that can be copy-pasted between machines.
