cookie-debugging

cookie-debugging is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from asgeirtj/system_prompts_leaks. It costs 71 tokens per session (2,176 once invoked), scanned A, original, CC0-1.0.

A guide for investigating browser cookies, login sessions, authentication failures, and cookie-consent behavior using Chrome DevTools. It explains the difference between cookies hidden from page scripts and cookies visible to them, as well as live and clean test sessions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect request and response cookie headers, examine browser-visible cookies, diagnose session problems, and check cookie-consent behavior.
Why use it?
It helps explain errors such as failed logins, 401 or 403 responses, redirects, and expired sessions without exposing or changing the wrong browser state. It also supports testing first-time visits and consent banners separately.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cookie-debugging scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Core Concepts

HttpOnly vs Client-Side Storage

Cookies marked HttpOnly cannot be accessed or modified by client-side JavaScript (cookieStore or document.cookie). However, the browser automatically attaches active HttpOnly cookies to outgoing HTTP request headers (Cookie).

  • To inspect current HttpOnly values: Look at the Cookie request header of any outgoing HTTP request via get_network_request.
  • To inspect how cookies were created or configured: Look at the Set-Cookie response header of login/auth responses.
  • To inspect non-HttpOnly cookies: Use evaluate_script with the modern cookieStore API (async () => await cookieStore.getAll()).

Session Strategy: Live Tab vs Isolated Context

Choose the right session environment to avoid state contamination (e.g., residual analytics or auth tokens):

Strategy When to Use Setup / Teardown
Live Tab (Active Page) Diagnosing an active user session, live 401/403 error, or current state. Operates directly on the currently selected page.
Clean-Slate (isolatedContext) Testing cookie consent banners, first-time visits, or zero-cookie guarantees. Call new_page with a unique isolatedContext (e.g. "consent-audit-1"). When finished, call close_page.

Client-Side Capabilities & Limitations

Action Client JavaScript (cookieStore / document.cookie) DevTools Network & Context Tools
Read Non-HttpOnly ✅ async () => await cookieStore.getAll() ✅ get_network_request (Request Cookie)
Read HttpOnly ❌ Blocked by browser security ✅ get_network_request (Request Cookie)
Inspect Attributes (Domain, Path, SameSite, Expires) ✅ async () => await cookieStore.getAll() ✅ get_network_request (Response Set-Cookie)
Modify / Delete Non-HttpOnly ✅ async () => await cookieStore.set(...) N/A
Modify / Delete HttpOnly ❌ Silent failure in JavaScript ✅ Use new_page(isolatedContext: ...) for clean state

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
