You should configure /_dev-server/propagate-cookie endpoint on your local dev server to handle click action.

app.post('/_dev-server/propagate-cookie', (req, res) => {
  res.send('OK');

  // do smth with the cookie in req.body

  "host": "https://example.com",
  "domain": "example.com",
  "cookie": "<cookie name>=<cookie value>"
