Question

I’ve got a script that programmatically applies different proxy settings for different wifi networks, but I’d like to make it automatic; when a certain wifi network is logged into, my script is called with the network name.

Any ideas?

Assuming you are on a linux if-up/if-down hooks is what you need.
Look at /etc/network/if-up.d and /etc/network/if-down.d .
The interfaces(5) manual page whould help in general.
