Local Session Sync Firefox

Local Session Sync

Copy selected cookies from the active tab to localhost so developers can reuse authenticated sessions while testing local apps.

Features & Capabilities

Recreate authenticated sessions on localhost from dev, stage, UAT, and production tabs.

Stay logged in on localhost when you switch between dev, stage, UAT, and local proxy setups.

Local Session Sync copies the cookies you choose from your current authenticated tab to localhost, so you can test locally without repeating login flows or manually moving cookies through DevTools.

If this sounds familiar, this extension is for you: • You log in on dev, stage, or UAT. • You switch your local app or proxy to that environment. • Localhost is no longer authenticated. • You waste time digging through DevTools and manually copying cookies. Local Session Sync removes that friction.

How it works • Open the environment where you are already logged in. • Use the extension and choose how cookies should be synced to localhost. • Refresh your local app. • Continue working with the same authenticated session.

Best use cases • Switching your local proxy between multiple backends. • Testing features against dev, stage, and UAT without logging in again and again. • Running several local apps that need the same authenticated state. • Reproducing environment-specific behavior on localhost faster.

What you can do • Copy cookies from the active tab to one or more localhost targets. • Clear localhost cookies before syncing for a clean session. • Sync cookies without clearing existing localhost cookies. • Clear configured localhost cookies without copying anything. • Filter cookies by substring, comma-separated names, one name per line, or regular expression. • Keep all cookie handling inside your browser.

Privacy and security • No backend. • No analytics. • No ads. • No tracking. • No external data sharing. • Source-site access is requested only when you use the extension.

Important Local Session Sync does not bypass authentication or authorization. It only recreates compatible cookie state on localhost for development and testing. Stop copying cookies manually. Reuse the session you already have and get back to building.

Is Local Session Sync Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Local Session Sync requires very minimum permissions.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Local Session Sync is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
