circ

Play with your circuits. You can do a few main actions:

• --list (-L) list the current circuits (similar to carml monitor).
• --build (-b) build a new circuit, either specifying relays by hand or “auto” to let Tor select. You may also use a * as a stand-in for any positional circuit; only Guards will be selected for the first one.
• --delete to delete a circuit (pass --if-unused or -u to only delete it after it’s no longer used).

The ~ characters in the names means that router doesn’t have the “Named” flag.

Examples
