Chisel: A fast TCP/UDP tunnel over HTTP

That makes it kinda useless.

What we need is a self-updating mechanism. See for instance yt-dlp, which breaks every now and then but a simple update almost always puts you back in action. We need something similar for tunnels.

What benefit would a self-updating mechanism provide?

Assuming they mean a cat and mouse game like ytdl where the software is updated once it starts getting detected by the enemy.

How will it self update after it's been deleted by the AV? Also, there are many AVs with different detection strategies. It's not always static analysis that can easily be defeated by slightly changing some lines of code.

I was thinking more about it being filtered by firewalls.

I don't think Chisel has a goal of evading AV detection.
