Could you build this?

Partial Creating a CLI tool that sets proxy environment variables or hooks into process networking is straightforward, but running or procuring a reliable pool of multi-country proxy exit nodes requires infrastructure and external proxy networks.

What it would actually take: A developer needs a lightweight CLI (in Go or Rust) that wraps shell execution or sets HTTP/HTTPS_PROXY variables per terminal session, combined with an integration into commercial residential/datacenter proxy providers (like Bright Data or Oxylabs) or self-hosted WireGuard/Squid nodes globally, managing user authentication and bandwidth billing.
