HTTP Proxy Agent

`http-proxy-agent` provides a robust `http.Agent` implementation designed for making HTTP requests through an HTTP or HTTPS proxy server in Node.js environments. Currently at version 9.0.0, this library is part of the actively maintained `proxy-agents` monorepo, which generally sees updates aligned with Node.js LTS releases. Its primary function is to integrate seamlessly with Node's built-in `http` module, abstracting the proxy connection details. A key distinction is its specific focus on `http` module requests; for proxying `https` module requests, the companion `https-proxy-agent` package should be used. It supports standard `http.Agent` options and allows for custom headers to be sent to the proxy. This package is specifically designed for Node.js environments, requiring Node.js 20 or later for version 9.0.0.
