Set up a WireGuard VPN tunnel on Windows using plain-language prompts, without editing any configuration files.
Manage multiple VPN tunnels that share the same DNS profiles and subnet lists, defined once and referenced everywhere.
Diagnose a failing WireGuard connection using the built-in doctor command that checks DNS, handshakes, and endpoint resolution.

Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
Windows-only. Requires WireGuard for Windows to be installed separately before WGM can manage any tunnels.
WGM is a command-line tool for Windows that makes managing WireGuard VPN tunnels much easier than using WireGuard's built-in tools. WireGuard itself is a fast, modern VPN protocol, but its native Windows client is deliberately minimal: you configure tunnels by editing plain text .conf files by hand. WGM adds a friendlier layer on top. The main entry point is wgm wizard, an interactive setup process that asks plain-language questions and creates a working tunnel without you ever touching a configuration file. For ongoing management, wgm config handles adding, editing, and removing settings through guided prompts. The configuration format is YAML rather than the standard WireGuard format, with one standout feature: reusable resources. You define a subnet list, a DNS profile, or a VPN endpoint once, give it a name, and then reference it with an @ prefix across any number of tunnels. Changing an endpoint address in one place updates every tunnel that uses it. Other features include a live terminal dashboard (wgm monitor) that shows all tunnels with real-time transfer rates and live throughput graphs, a diagnostics command (wgm doctor) that runs a full health check on your tunnel including DNS resolution and handshake verification, autostart registration so a tunnel connects automatically at boot, route overlap detection that warns you when two tunnels try to claim the same network range, and import and export compatibility with standard WireGuard .conf files. WGM ships as a standalone Windows executable with no extra dependencies. You can install it via a companion package manager called CMAM, download a pre-built binary from the GitHub Releases page, or run it from Python source. The tool is Windows-only and requires the WireGuard for Windows client to be installed alongside it.
