How do I debug my local site with Inspect?

Proxy server support

Inspect is built with Electron, and has exactly the same proxy server support as Google Chromium. Here’s a snippet from Chromium’s documentation: “The Chromium network stack uses the system network settings so that users and administrators can control the network settings of all applications easily. The network settings include: 
 - proxy settings
 - SSL/TLS settings
 - certificate revocation check settings
 - certificate and private key stores"
This means that your proxy settings should be picked up automatically. Otherwise, you can use the following command-line arguments to control your proxy settings: 
# Disable proxy
--no-proxy-server

# Manual proxy address
--proxy-server=<scheme>=<uri>[:<port>][;...] | <uri>[:<port>] | "direct://"

# Manual PAC address
--proxy-pac-url=<pac-file-url>

# Disable proxy per host
--proxy-bypass-list=(<trailing_domain>|<ip-address>)[:<port>][;...]
To learn more about these command-line arguments, see Chromium Network Settings.
