The documentation is a bit vague. Puppeteer uses proxy for downloading browser. After launching Chrome, for a Chrome browser context, we need to forward config settings to force Chrome using web proxy. |

If we don't want to inject into CDP, we could also launch browser with proxy. https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/06442aeb8b03fb9effb32bd261a9bffa0b45603a/examples/proxy.js#L10
