What a manifest can prove
It can show requested permissions and host patterns. Those declarations support a review of potential session, page, network, and download surfaces, but they do not prove a code path actually uses them.
Static declarations can evidence capability surfaces, not runtime behavior. This audit never touches Chrome, cookies, passwords, Gmail, X, or any logged-in account.
The mapping is declaration-based. `cookies` still requires matching host permission; `scripting` needs host access or activeTab at runtime; password-store import is never inferred from a generic permission name.

The sample manifest contains no declaration that evidences saved-password-store import. Treating `cookies` as proof of password access would collapse two distinct data surfaces and overstate the artifact.
