🚀 Release Notes: Cookie Importer v2.0.4

✨ Improvements:

• Performance: The "Clear Cookies" engine now runs in parallel, significantly speeding up the deletion of large cookie sets.
• UI Updates: Added loading indicators for heavy operations when clearing cookies to prevent UI freezing.
• Visual Feedback: Selecting "All Domains" now changes the background and border color of the input area, making it visually distinct so you know exactly when you are working in Global Scope.

1. New Export System (Major Feature)

• Multi-Format Export: A completely new Export Modal was added. You can now export your current cookies in 6 different formats directly to the clipboard:
• JSON (Standard)
• Netscape (Wget / Curl format)
• Header String (name=value;)
• Puppeteer (Node.js JSON with expires field)
• Python Dict (Dictionary format for Requests)
• CSV (Excel compatible)
• Logic: Added dedicated generator functions (generatePuppeteer, generatePython, etc.) to handle specific syntax requirements for each format (e.g., escaping single quotes for Python, mapping expirationDate for Puppeteer).

2. Core Logic Improvements

• Smarter Domain Detection:
• Compound TLD Support: The getRootDomain function was updated to better handle domains like .co.uk or .co.jp. It now checks for common Second Level Domains (SLDs) like co, com, org, net, etc., to correctly identify the root.
• "WWW" Transparency: The saveCookie logic now explicitly handles www. prefixes. It performs a bidirectional check to ensure example.com and www.example.com are treated as related, preventing false "Domain Mismatch" errors.

Changelog

[2.0.2]

Fixed

• Critical Domain Detection Bug: Fixed an issue where creating snapshots or exporting cookies for sites with compound TLDs (e.g., .co.uk, .co.jp, .gov.br) would incorrectly capture all cookies sharing that TLD suffix (e.g., telegraph.co.uk would include google.co.uk). The extension now correctly identifies the root domain for these cases using an improved public suffix heuristic.

Improved

• Netscape Export Compatibility: Added the standard #HttpOnly_ prefix to lines in the Netscape export format when a cookie has the HttpOnly flag. This improves compatibility with external tools like curl and wget.
• Netscape Import Logic: The parser now correctly recognizes and processes the #HttpOnly_ prefix, ensuring these cookies are imported with the correct HttpOnly attribute state.
• File Formatting: Cleaned up the Netscape export output to remove unnecessary empty lines and added a custom header comment to generated files.

🚀 Release Notes: Cookie Importer v2.0.1

The "Session Master" Update

This milestone update rebrands the extension to Cookie Importer Pro. We have expanded beyond simple importing to give you full lifecycle management of your browser sessions with snapshots, protection mechanisms, and advanced editing tools.

🌟 Headline Features

• 📸 Session Snapshots (Profiles)
• Save & Restore: Instantly back up your current browser cookies into a named "Snapshot." Perfect for switching between multiple accounts or saving specific development states.
• Portable Library: Export your entire snapshot library to the clipboard and import it on another machine.
• Deep Inspection: View exactly which domains and how many cookies are stored inside a snapshot before restoring it.
• 🔒 Cookie Locking (Protected Mode)
• Never lose your login again. You can now "Lock" specific cookies in the Manager Dashboard.
• Smart Clearing: When you use "Clear All Cookies," locked cookies are skipped and preserved, ensuring you stay logged into critical tools while clearing tracking clutter.
• ⚡ Advanced Cookie Editor
• Full Attribute Control: The "Manage Cookies" dashboard now has an Advanced Mode.
• Edit Flags: Toggle Secure and HttpOnly flags or change SameSite policies (Lax, Strict, None) directly from the UI.
• Renew Expired: A new one-click tool to resurrect expired cookies by extending their expiration date by 1 year.

🎨 UI/UX Overhaul

• Pro Interface: A refreshed header with "Pro" branding and a cleaner, more dense layout.
• Custom Modals: We have removed all native browser alerts/prompts. All interactions (renaming snapshots, confirming deletions) now use polished, dark-mode compatible custom modals.
• Quick Actions: New segmented controls for instant JSON or Netscape export directly from the main view.

🔧 Under the Hood Improvements

• Snapshot Storage Engine: Built a robust local storage system to handle large snapshot libraries efficiently using chrome.storage.local.
• Context-Aware Clearing: The "Clear" button now intelligently respects the "All Domains" toggle, clearing either the specific active site or the entire browser storage based on your selection.
• Performance: Optimized the "Manage" list to render large datasets in batches, significantly reducing lag when viewing 1,000+ cookies.

🚀 Release Notes: Cookie Importer v1.7.1

The "Control Freak" Update

This major update transforms Cookie Importer from a simple utility into a complete Session Management Suite. We have rebuilt the engine to prioritize safety, visibility, and control.

🌟 Headline Features

• 🛡️ Staged Imports (Safety First)
  • No more blind imports. When you paste cookies, the extension now opens a Review Modal.
  • Verify before you commit: See exactly which cookies will be added, their expiration status, and domain conflicts.
  • Filter & Search: Easily find specific keys in large cookie dumps before importing.
• 🍪 New "Manage Cookies" Dashboard
  • View all active cookies for the current site without opening DevTools.
  • Edit on the fly: Modify cookie values, expiration dates, or Secure/HttpOnly flags directly in the UI.
  • Export Support: Export your current session cookies to JSON or Netscape format for use in other tools (like curl or wget).
• 🕵️ Incognito & Container Support
  • The extension now intelligently detects Incognito windows and Firefox Multi-Account Containers, ensuring cookies are imported into the correct store ID rather than leaking into the default profile.

🎨 UI/UX Overhaul

• Dark Mode: A new, fully custom Dark Mode that respects your system settings or can be toggled manually.
• Compact Header: A redesigned header to save screen space while adding quick access to settings.
• Live Activity Log: A collapsible "Log" panel shows real-time success/failure status for every single cookie processed.

🔧 Under the Hood Improvements

• Smart Deduplication: Fixed an issue where .example.com (Domain Cookie) and example.com (HostOnly Cookie) were sometimes treated as duplicates. They are now correctly handled as distinct entries.
• Bidirectional Domain Validation: The import logic now understands subdomains better. Importing cookies for .api.example.com while on example.com is now handled seamlessly.
