The functions are a bit spread out in client_side*.cc.

If you only need access to the URL or request headers then using the
redirector or external acl interfaces works well for this purpose.

If you need access to request/reply body data then ICAP is the way to
go. Still needs a little of work before really usable in Squid however,
but the current implementation works well as point of proof.
