Project background

This project is based on code originally created by yichengchen, obtained from bannedbook/ClashX, with subsequent macOS compatibility changes. The original git history was lost when the .git directory was accidentally deleted while recreating the project.

The 1.140.0 source tag already depends on mihomo v1.19.24. Core capabilities do not mean every feature is exposed by this legacy client's interface. This repository is standard ClashX, not the historical ClashX Pro application.

Retained features

• HTTP/HTTPS and SOCKS protocol support
• Surge-like configuration
• GeoIP rule support
• Support for Vmess/Shadowsocks/Socks5/Trojan protocols
• Netfilter TCP redirect support
• macOS 10.14+ compatibility
• Historical macOS compatibility fixes; newer system releases are no longer tested or maintained

📥 Installation

Historical ClashX installers remain available on the Releases page.

For a maintained client, see ClashFX and its migration guide. Check compatibility before installing.
