Built this because I got tired of signing into everything twice — once in my browser, again in the preview. Happy to contribute it if you want it. It reads cookies from a browser you've already got installed and drops them into the preview partition. I have Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, Safari and Firefox working on macOS and Linux, but honestly Chrome on macOS alone covers most of the value. A few things I felt strongly about while building it: It's Settings-only, and agents can't trigger it. That one matters — anything driving the preview can act as you on every site you import, so it should be a thing you choose to do, not something that happens on your behalf. There's a confirmation dialog naming the browser before it reads anything, and your real browser is never touched — it copies the database first, since reading a running browser's cookie DB live gives you a torn read. It skips device-bound cookies. They don't work anywhere else anyway, and copying them can log you out of the real browser. And there's a clear button, plus it shows you what's currently in there. |

Resolved by #7262 (Safari cookie import completes the browser cookie import flow for Chrome/Firefox/Safari and Chromium-based browsers). |
