I couldn't find any info.

  1. Is this a replacement for Kodi Settings > System > Internet > Proxy (client)? Or a proxy server where you can/cannot set individual user/password proxy accounts?
  2. I tried to instal the kodi.proxy-master.zip on my AlexElec 20.1 Kodi TV box, but it gives me " install failed..."
  3. How do I use this ? Not a dev, but will the service start be something like enable/start/status/disable:

    systemctl enable ./proxy.py "plugin://script.module.slyguy" service

  4. What are use cases? I am looking at the Kodi native proxy client and wondering if besides tvheadend, other Kodi apps/PVRs can be individually passed through a proxy server (that I set up) with assigning individual user/passwords to users
  5. What is a good, simple http(s) proxy server for item5 to set up in a VPS? Squid?

no - this is not a proxy in those terms. This is a proxy for kodi itself.

This is not suitable for your use case

"A basic Kodi "emulator" to allow non-kodi programs to obtain playable urls from the various Slyguy addons. Commonly used with TvHeadend"
