Rules For Quantumult X is a collection of filtering rules and rewrite configurations for Quantumult X, a network proxy application.
The project addresses the need to organize and apply network traffic filtering rules in Quantumult X, enabling users to route different types of traffic through different proxy policies. It provides curated rules sourced from the internet that handle domestic direct connections, overseas acceleration, selective Apple service routing, blocking of carrier hijacking, fraud site blocking, and application-level ad blocking. The collection is organized into sections covering general rules and rewrites, a BackCN section for unlocking domestic media services, and recommendations for public DNS providers.
Users should adopt this tool if they operate Quantumult X and want pre-configured filtering rules without building their own from scratch. The rules are designed for users seeking to separate traffic flows by destination and service type, with particular attention to Chinese domestic services and overseas content acceleration. The project includes guidance on proper installation, requiring rules to be added to the distribution list using raw links, and notes that web-based ad blocking should be handled separately through Safari content blockers or ad-blocking browsers rather than through these rules.
The project maintains active engagement with users through issue tracking for copyright concerns and source attribution. The maintainer has communicated infrastructure changes to users, including a CDN domain migration with advance notice and a transition period. The repository includes comprehensive documentation covering configuration requirements, installation steps, frequently asked questions, ad-blocking approaches, rule directory organization, and contribution guidelines.
