Show HN: Tlsctl – A CLI for inspecting and troubleshooting TLS
github.comHi,
I built tlsctl, a small CLI for inspecting, testing, and debugging TLS connections:
https://github.com/catay/tlsctl
It aims to make TLS diagnostics more readable and structured than stitching together `openssl` and other ad-hoc commands. You can inspect certificates and chains, check protocol support, and output in different formats.
Part of the motivation was practical (I got tired of parsing `openssl s_client` output), and part was educational. I wanted to build more hands-on experience with agentic engineering workflows. Shout out to https://ampcode.com/ for their coding agent.
I’d love feedback on usefulness, missing features, and whether this fits into real-world TLS troubleshooting workflows.
Thanks!
Steven
