Also note that you can use the `stream` option instead where you can supply custom duplex, but this will still use serialization/deserialization of packets.
 
+### Proxy Support
+
+The `proxy` option allows connecting to Minecraft servers through SOCKS4, SOCKS5, HTTP, or HTTPS proxies. This feature integrates seamlessly with authentication and supports SRV record resolution. See the `examples/client_builtin_proxy/` folder for usage examples.
