This tool reads browser databases directly, handles decryption, and outputs cookies you can use in API calls, testing, or automation. What it does The Problem : You're logged into a website in your browser, but you need those same cookies for API testing, automation, or debugging. Manually copying cookies from DevTools is tedious and they expire quickly. The Solution : get-cookie reads cookies directly from browser databases (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.), handles all the encryption/decryption, and gives you the cookie values to use programmatically. Quick Start Common Use Cases - API Testing : Extract session cookies to test authenticated endpoints - Browser Automation : Get real cookies instead of managing login flows - Debugging : Compare cookies across browsers to troubleshoot auth issues - CI/CD : Automate authenticated API tests without storing credentials - Development : Test with production-like authentication locally How it works 1. Locates browser databases on your system (Chrome uses SQLite, Safari uses binary files) 2. Handles encryption (Chrome's keychain/DPAPI encryption, etc.) 3. Extracts and parses cookie data 4. Returns usable values you can immediately use in HTTP requests No browser automation, no complex setup - just direct database access.
