• Script requests now follow the selected proxy node
• Fixed IPv4 UDP communication in Snell: UDP data returned by the server is now delivered correctly when connecting to IPv4 destinations via Snell v4, v5, or v6.
• Tailscale login links can be refreshed after they expire: expired links are updated automatically, and you can continue logging in after refreshing them.… more - 📈Stash - Rule Based Proxy charting in a new countryPhilippines

- 📦Stash - Rule Based Proxy updated to version 3.6.4New Features
• Exit location names are now displayed in the app's language
• Automatically select a latency test target
Improvements
• Improved compatibility notices for Tailscale nodes
• Improved error messages for body rewrite rules
Fixes
• Complex rewrite rules no longer cause crashes
• Fixed cached data being lost after restarting
• Fixed browsing failures on some websites
• Fixed VLESS Vision connections getting stuck: some TLS 1.3 requests can now continue connecting as expected.
• Automatically retry StashLink initialization after network recovery
• Fixed a crash when deleting an override
• Improved device syncing on restricted networks… more - 📦Stash - Rule Based Proxy updated to version 3.6.3New Features
• Hybrid proxies now support more SOCKS connection methods: added SOCKS4 and SOCKS4a support, and compatibility with SOCKS5 connections that use username-and-password authentication only.
Improvements
• Improved the accuracy of direct connection latency tests.
• QR codes and share links can now import more proxy configurations: support for additional node formats, while preserving supported TLS, REALITY, and transport settings. Parameters that cannot be safely preserved will be rejected during import.
Fixes
• Improved Tailscale node version detection: the Tailscale admin console can now correctly identify Stash node versions and manage node settings.
• Fixed StashLink device identity recovery: if identity credentials can’t be used, the app will try to obtain new ones and preserve existing valid credentials if renewal fails.… more - 📦Stash - Rule Based Proxy: now updating weekly4 updates in 30 days, after a quiet two months

- 📦Stash - Rule Based Proxy updated to version 3.6.2New Features
• Added XHTTP padding options: When configuring a VLESS XHTTP proxy, you can set the padding mode, key, request headers, placement, and method.
Improvements
• Reduced memory usage for large sets of HTTP rewrite rules: This lowers the chance of the app exiting before the tunnel starts due to insufficient memory.
• Display and download missing GeoIP databases: Undownloaded GeoIP databases now appear in the resource list and can be downloaded with a tap.
Fixes
• Improved Tailscale connections and address updates: Fixed version detection to prevent issues with connections and network address updates.
• Allow startup when resource caching fails: If a cache file can’t be read, the original resource is used instead, preventing the issue from blocking network operation.
• Improved Mieru connections: Connections can now be established without traffic features being configured, and connection resets in some network environments have been addressed.
• Correctly read SSH node login usernames: SSH nodes imported in mihomo format no longer unexpectedly use root to log in.
• Support servers with older certificates: When certificate verification is skipped or certificate pinning is enabled, you can connect to servers using X.509 v1 certificates, including MASQUE servers.
• Improved SOCKS5 server compatibility: Relaxed restrictions on authentication and connection response formats to support more servers.
• Keep measured results in latency tests: Previously measured latency remains visible if a later request times out or fails.
• Prevent tunnel startup failures when iCloud sync is disabled: iCloud placeholder files no longer prevent the network from starting when iCloud configuration sync is turned off.… more - 📈Stash - Rule Based Proxy entered the top 10 in 2 chartsTop Paid · Utilities · AE · Top Paid · Utilities · ID

- 📦Stash - Rule Based Proxy updated to version 3.6.1New Features
• Added support for custom XHTTP request padding. Configure how and where padding is added to meet different server connection requirements.
Fixes
• Fixed connection failures with AnyTLS subscription nodes by correctly reading certificate fingerprints from subscriptions and preventing certificate validation errors.… more - 📦Stash - Rule Based Proxy updated to version 3.6.0· Protocols and Transports
- Added the MASQUE protocol
- Added VLESS Encryption: encrypts the stream without TLS underneath, and stacks with Vision flow control
- Added the XHTTP transport with HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3; upload and download legs can be configured separately
- Snell now supports v4, v5 and v6 (v6 in its unsafe-raw / unshaped / default modes)
- REALITY is no longer limited to VLESS over TCP: it now works under VLESS WebSocket, H2, gRPC and HTTP-obfuscation transports, and under Trojan and VMess
- VLESS and VMess support plaintext gRPC
- VMess supports XUDP and packetaddr; VLESS and VMess gain the packet-encoding, xudp and packet-addr keys
- TUIC lets you choose the congestion controller (congestion-controller: bbr / cubic / new_reno)
- SOCKS5 outbound supports TLS (tls, sni, skip-cert-verify, alpn, server-cert-fingerprint)
- SSH supports host-key pinning and host-key-algorithms
- WebSocket transport supports Early Data (ws-opts.max-early-data, early-data-header-name, and the ?ed= marker in subscription links)
· TLS and Security
- Every TLS ClientHello now offers the X25519MLKEM768 post-quantum hybrid key exchange by default; REALITY can enable it with reality-opts.support-x25519mlkem768, and shadow-tls v3 carries it as well
- MitM leaf certificates are reused per public suffix, so far fewer certificates are generated
· Tailscale
- Adding a Tailscale node automatically routes its MagicDNS suffix and every peer address to that node, with no hand-written rules; disable with auto-route-disabled: true
- The runtime exit-node choice persists across restarts
- The status API shows whether each peer is reached directly or through a DERP relay
· StashLink
- When underlying-proxy is left empty, the relay carrier is chosen automatically from the device's own proxies, and re-chosen after network changes or subscription updates
- Device names resolve under the .stash suffix and route to the matching device automatically
- The path a StashLink proxy is currently on is visible; direct paths are kept across network changes where possible
· Rules and DNS
- GEOIP and IP-ASN support UNKNOWN, matching addresses with no database entry
- A rule that cannot be parsed is skipped with a warning instead of failing the whole configuration load
- fake-ip-filter and nameserver-policy can reference rule-set: and geosite:
- A nameserver-policy key can list several matchers separated by commas… more - 📈Stash - Rule Based Proxy entered the top 10Top Paid · Utilities · RU
