Dev Proxy v1.3.0 is out, with:
- HAR file generation for universal debugging
- LLM usage tracking for cost optimization,
- enhanced permissions analysis
- improved OpenAPI spec generation

Testing APIs is noisy when filtering only by URL-irrelevant requests slow you down and hide integration issues. Dev Proxy lets you filter by specific headers and values for focused debugging. Get cleaner logs, diagnose faster, and ship better apps.

Rolling out to VS Code now: Claude Sonnet 4.5, Anthropic's most advanced model for coding.

Dev Proxy v1.2 is out with mock response mirroring and improve performance!

HTTP files are awesome for quickly testing APIs. Dev Proxy auto-generates HTTP files from API traffic. This saves time, boosts security, and makes sharing reproducible API scenarios easy for development and collaboration.

TypeSpec is a game changer for working with APIs. But how to build it? Dev Proxy records real API traffic and auto-generates accurate TypeSpec files-no manual contract writing. Get reliable, up-to-date specs fast for smoother, faster integration.

I’ve heard good things from folks about the original, not sure how the sequel stacks up, but I guess it’s more of the same.
How much does it cost to register as an individual developer on the Microsoft Store?
Zero.
Zip.
Nada.
Zilch.
Nothing.

This Friday I’ll be virtually joining the XeDotNet community for a talk in Italian about agents + Copilot 🚀
We’ll cover:
- How Agent Builder, Copilot Studio, and the Agents SDK fit together
- What this means for devs + organizations
Free to join here: www.xedotnet.org/eventi/un-ec...
Imagine scoring 4 and still not taking the match ball home 😅
Welcome to the club! I got mine at launch and it’s been great. I use it a lot of Teams meetings.
Hardcoded tokens or skipped auth checks cause unreliable authentication simulation, slowing you down. Dev Proxy's AuthPlugin simulates real API key/OAuth2 flows, enforcing auth scenarios. Test auth reliably and launch with confidence.

This project aims to showcase common anti-patterns in software encountered in real-life cloud applications around the world. Not only do we explain, we also include code samples of what (not) to do.
Working on a new feature for @devproxy.bsky.social for which I needed a specific config. Short prompt + two empty files + Dev Proxy MCP server. Got a working setup in seconds. The best time to be a dev!
Another thing which I didn’t know about was that Valve released Half-Life: Uplink for the 25th anniversary to the Steam version of the game. As expected, it’s really well done standalone chapter. Highly recommend playing through it if you’ve not done so.
Shortly after finishing it, I found out about ReShade, a post-processing tool that can applying modern effects, tweaks, and visual filters in real time to any PC game. The results are pretty impressive, simple effects like bloom, make lighting more atmospheric.
26 yrs after its initial release, I finally finished Half-life.
I’ve lost count how many times I’ve started playing it and then just stopped for no real reason.
The graphics are dated by today’s standards but the story and gameplay is still brilliant.
Run. Think. Shoot. Live.

A scenic view of St. Ives, a coastal town in Cornwall, England. The image shows a sandy beach with gentle waves from the sea, surrounded by a stone pier and breakwater. In the background, there are numerous houses and buildings clustered together on the hillside under a cloudy sky. Greenery is visible in the foreground along with some rooftops.
Reconnecting after two weeks family holiday in Cornwall 🏖️

A thumbnail with a dark background and a screenshot of VS Code that reads "VS Code Dev Days Join our series of in-person community events aka.ms/VSCode/DevDays" with a VS Code and GitHub Copilot logo
We're so excited to bring you VS Code Dev Days - a global community initiative to explore the AI capabilities within VS Code!
With more than 60 worldwide, in-person events and 4 special virtual editions, there's an event for you. Learn more: aka.ms/VSCode/DevDa...
We’re excited to announce Dev Proxy v1.0, with new language model-specific testing capabilities. Check it out! devblogs.microsoft.com/microsoft365...
There's enough horrible things happening in the world.
Please don't have your API return a 200 OK with an error code and add to that list.
Need a mock API which is also available over the internet? Dev Proxy lets you simulate CRUD APIs instantly with no code, share live endpoints via Dev Tunnels, validate early, collaborate remotely, and speed up frontend integration.

Screenshot showing mock data setup for a Microsoft Graph API response. On the left, a JSON file defines a mock GET response for https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me, with user details like name and email. On the right, the terminal displays the mocked response being served from a local proxy.
Testing your app against real-world failures can be a pain. Especially when working with APIs that you don't own like Microsoft Graph. 1/4
Terminal screenshot showing OpenAIMockResponsePlugin in use, with commands to run/stop proxy and a POST request to OpenAI API. Red arrows highlight 'Call cloud LLM' and 'Get local response'.
Building with OpenAI APIs can get expensive fast-especially when you just need to test parts of your app that don't need real AI replies. 1/4
Closed the week on a high note. @garrytrinder.dev and I have done some really cool stuff for @devproxy.bsky.social. If you use it, be sure you’ve got the Dev Proxy Toolkit VSCode extension so that you can manage configs using natural language. 💪
For debugging code we need symbols/source maps. For debugging APIs we need access to raw requests and responses with their headers. If you’re building an app or an SDK be sure to have a switch to expose this information.
