PSAT cli tool result less cookie than extension

[Joeyindigital]

Run test on single url and sitemap the result for total cookies and blocked cookies show massive different.
The result from cli tool.

And the extension for single url. ( CDP enabled)

Is there any reason that cli tool show much lower than extension?

Hello @Joeyindigital

Thanks for getting in touch!
The difference you’re seeing between the CLI and PSAT extension results might be due to things such as the environment, duration, user Interaction as described on our wiki page.

Additionally, using a regular Chrome profile can cause issues because cookies remains, such as orphaned cookies and unmapped cookies.

To avoid this, we recommend creating a separate Chrome profile specifically for using the PSAT Chrome extension. This keeps things clean and consistent.

For instructions on setting up an evaluation environment, please check our wiki page
