 "title": "Move profiles between machines and export cookies",
 "page_title": "How to move profiles between machines and export cookies with Foxprofile",
 "summary": "Export a profile as a ZIP and its cookies as cookies.txt for tools like yt-dlp or curl.",
 "who": "A user moving a set of profiles to a new computer, or a developer who needs a session's cookies for a download script.",
 "problem": "Rebuilding profiles by hand loses their fingerprints and logins, and command-line tools need cookies in a specific format.",
 "outcome": "A ZIP file holding the profile, with its fingerprint, that imports on another machine, plus a Netscape cookies.txt file for a download tool.",
 "steps": [
  "Stop the profile's browser, since cookie export needs it stopped",
  "Export the profile as a ZIP from the profile menu, choosing whether to include browser data",
  "Copy the ZIP to the new machine, install FoxProfile there, and import the ZIP",
  "Open Cookies & fingerprint for the profile and export cookies in Netscape cookies.txt format",
  "Pass the cookies.txt file to the download tool, for example yt-dlp or curl"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the repo chienbm98/foxprofile, export the profile <profile-name> as a ZIP and its cookies as Netscape cookies.txt. Return the file paths and the number of cookies exported. Verify that the profile's browser was stopped before the export.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "45 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says the profile's browser must be stopped before cookies are read or written, and the fingerprint travels with the ZIP while the Chrome engine remains experimental.",
