How to clear cookies in archiveweb.page Electron?

Hi, thanks very much for building this set of tools. I think it's going to be a big help for data journalists like me, freeing us up to do data extraction "ride-alongs" that split the difference between a fully-automated scraping workflow versus a non-recorded ordinary browser session.

In piloting a project, I want to record several independent, replicable web-browsing sessions. However, I find that session state is shared across Archives. Is there a way to start a new archive afresh, or to clear the state with a single click?

(My workaround so far has been to log out of the relevant site via its logout UI, but that doesn't really clear the whole state.)

Thanks very much!
