At a glance

A skill your agent uses when reviewing a website for privacy compliance, third-party resource loading, or cookie consent implementation.

  • Reviewing a website for privacy compliance
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Reference, Check, Fix and Explain, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Third-party resource loading

What it does

Third Party Cookies is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when reviewing a website for privacy compliance, third-party resource loading, or cookie consent implementation.

Its SKILL.md is about 580 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/rule.md`).

It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering Privacy and GDPR. The repository describes itself as: 🗂 The essential checklist for modern web development, for humans and AI agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing a website for privacy compliance
  • Third-party resource loading
  • Cookie consent implementation

Example prompts

  • “/third-party-cookies”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e8d14d0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • frontendchecklist.io

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Third Party Cookies loads about 580 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 250 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~34
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~580
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.9k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Avoid third-party cookies

Third-party cookies enable advertising networks to build detailed behavioral profiles of users across every site they visit — without users being aware. Regulatory penalties for non-compliance with GDPR reach up to 4% of global annual turnover.

Quick Reference

  • Third-party cookies are set by a domain other than the one the user is visiting — typically by ad networks, analytics, or embedded widgets
  • Chrome is removing third-party cookie support and all major browsers now block or restrict them
  • Use the Network DevTools panel to identify Set-Cookie headers from third-party domains
  • GDPR (EU), CCPA (California), and PECR (UK) require informed consent before setting non-essential cookies
  • Alternatives: first-party data collection, privacy-preserving analytics (Plausible, Fathom), server-side tracking

Check

Open the browser DevTools Network panel and Application panel (Cookies section). Identify all cookies set by domains other than the current domain. Check for tracking pixels, analytics scripts, and advertising tags that set cross-site cookies.

Fix

Audit and remove unnecessary third-party scripts. Replace cross-site tracking with privacy-preserving first-party analytics. Ensure any remaining third-party cookies are gated behind explicit user consent via a cookie consent mechanism.

Explain

Explain what third-party cookies are, how they enable cross-site tracking, why browsers are blocking them, and how GDPR/CCPA regulate their use.

Code Review

Review server config, headers, forms, and integration points related to Avoid third-party cookies. Flag exact responses, cookies, or browser behaviors that violate the rule, and verify them against the effective production-like response.


For full implementation details, code examples, and framework-specific guidance, see references/rule.md.
