Extension summary

Open Cookie Editor: A chromium cookie editor you can trust

I don’t trust many extensions which can read/write sensitive data from the browser, so I decided to write my own and opensource the code. The codebase is intentionally small, offering a minimalist cookie editor which can be source-code reviewed in a few minutes.

Some (hopefully) useful features:

  • edit/delete all aspects of existing cookies
  • create new cookies
  • base64 & url encode/decode helpers
  • smart search+filter within domain scope

Get it from the extensions store (or just install yourself):

If you’re extra paranoid about supply-chain attacks, review the code here, clone, and install as an unpacked extension locally:

Works great. Minor note: Be aware that in an incognito window, it shows the normal cookies, not that for incognito browsing.

*Base64* and *Url* decoding feature is very practical. Only thing that is missing '*Export* all visible to JSON' and *import*. However since it's opensource you may do that ya own and then send it via git hub pull request to the author.
