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:

*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.

Works as intended

Does exactly what's required. Presentation could be better but that's more than made up for by being able to look at the code (and I did). Thank you!
