httpmon provides quick actions for working with captured flows. You can access them through the action menu or with direct keyboard shortcuts.

Action menu

Press Space to open the context-aware action menu. The available actions depend on which view you are in. From the flow list:
ActionDescription

Compose RequestOpen the request composer
Mark for DiffMark the selected flow for comparison
From the detail view:
ActionDescription

httpmon action menu

Direct shortcuts

You can also trigger actions directly without opening the menu.

Copy as cURL

Press c in the detail view to copy the request as a cURL command to your clipboard. httpmon uses OSC 52 for clipboard access, so it works over SSH sessions too.

Repeat request

Press r in the detail view to replay the request. The repeated request goes through the proxy and appears as a new flow in the list.

Open in editor

Press e in the detail view to open the response or request body in your external editor. httpmon uses the $EDITOR environment variable to determine which editor to launch.
