Chrome Dev Tools Extension for Proxying requests & Accessing Terminal

This chrome dev tool extension is a combination of two open sourced exts a) NodeJs app that kills the terminal and act as a task runner & b) A Chrome proxy that routes all your browser traffic from chrome over to an IP address or hostname of your preference. It's a powerful tool to have if you need to route traffic over to localhost reverse proxies for testing and running browser automation taks all from within a dev tools extension.
