# Function: getMixTunnel()

> **getMixTunnel**(): `Promise`\<`Remote`\<[`IMixTunnelWorker`](../interfaces/IMixTunnelWorker.md)\>\>

Get the singleton tunnel worker handle. The first call spawns the worker
and loads smolmix-wasm; subsequent calls return the same handle.

Note: this does NOT call `setupMixTunnel` automatically. Call it on the
returned handle (or use the top-level `setupMixTunnel` helper) before
issuing fetch/dns/websocket requests.

## Returns

`Promise`\<`Remote`\<[`IMixTunnelWorker`](../interfaces/IMixTunnelWorker.md)\>\>
