CookieSnap

Export, analyse and compare cookies. With this extension your cookies are 100% safe.

CookieSnap is a tool built for developers, testers and anyone who needs full control over cookies in their browser. All processing happens locally on your device, no data is ever sent anywhere outside. Export Formats CookieSnap supports four export formats tailored to different use cases. Netscape format (.txt) is fully compatible with curl, wget, MozillaCookieJar (Python 3) and other popular tools. JSON format contains complete cookie data in a structure ready for further processing. Header String format generates a ready-to-use HTTP Cookie header for direct use in requests. CSV format enables convenient data analysis in spreadsheet applications. Key Features The extension displays all cookies from the active page in a clear table with sortable columns, just click any column header to sort. The built-in search bar lets you instantly filter cookies by any phrase. Row colouring makes it easy to distinguish session cookies, secure cookies (Secure flag) and cookies protected from JavaScript (HttpOnly flag). The readable time option converts raw Unix timestamps into a human-friendly GG:MM DD/MM/YYYY format. The copy button lets you copy cookies to the clipboard in a single click. Cookie Diff CookieSnap includes a unique cookie comparison feature accessible via the "Cookie Diff" button. It allows you to take two snapshots of cookie state at any point in time and compare them side by side. This is particularly useful when testing login flows, analysing sessions or tracking changes made by page scripts. Comparison results are clearly colour-coded, green indicates added cookies, red indicates removed ones and yellow indicates changed values. Privacy and Security The extension has no backend server and makes no network connections whatsoever. The source code is transparent and unobfuscated, you can verify it yourself in the extension installation directory.
