DevTools panel

Open Chrome DevTools and switch to the EDITH tab — next to Console / Network / Application.

The panel captures every network request and console message in real time, annotates each request with EDITH findings (cookies missing HttpOnly, mixed content, slow response, large response, PII in body), and surfaces console errors with PII fingerprinting.

The DevTools panel is the deepest live audit surface — see runtime issues the static scan can't see.

Connect to your EDITH account

Click Connect to your EDITH account in the popup, paste your API token (generate one at /settings), and findings sync to your dashboard for cross-device visibility.
