Description

WebSocket connections can be opened and tested interactively from the terminal. This is useful for developers debugging real-time APIs, event streams, and services that do not fit simple HTTP requests.

The tool sends and receives raw data over network connections. Avoid pasting secrets into unknown endpoints and verify URLs before testing production systems.
