Bokal is a Manifest V3 Chrome cookie manager focused on privacy, avoiding the 'tabs' permission and keeping all data local. It offers full cookie editing, import/export (including Playwright/Puppeteer formats), and unique features like a CHIPS partition inspector and encrypted cookie profiles. It's technically solid and well-documented, targeting developers and QA engineers who need granular cookie control without broad permissions.

Target audience: web developers, QA engineers, privacy-conscious users
