Excellent pointer with warcprox, I hadn’t seen it. I’m noticing mitmproxy, warcprox, webcrystal, and also obviously offpunk are all python.

It seems there should be some mashup of them all that can produce a solution. One that also involves using offpunk to access the archive in the terminal.

Mitmproxy caught my eye with transparent mode [1] and the idea that the client/user VM may not even need configuration in my setup, the vfio-pci GPU passthough desktop OS approach. The archiver VM produced archive/cache could just be NFS mounted over a private bridge interface between the desktop VM and archive VM.

You can now start accessing the raw cache with "netcache --offline". Or you can access it by hand: the cache is only made of files stored in folders.
