Scope

Adds a new behavior

Compatibility

  • This is a breaking change

Feature description

From the discussion at https://github.com/mswjs/msw/discussions/2467, because node.js does not manage cookies in the default implementation, msw shouldn't manage cookies in node.js either.

This will allow node.js users to decide whether they want to manage cookies via other userland solutions or stick to the default behavior.
