Version (please complete the following information):

  • OS: macOS 15.7.2
  • Browser Safari 26.1
  • Web Clipper version: 0.12.0
  • Obsidian version: 1.10.6

Describe the bug

I'm evaluating macOS lockdown modus, which is relevant for certain groups, e.g. journalists. Before enabling lockdown mode, Clipper worked perfectly well. When enabling lockdown, it basically stops working. Other plugins like SinglePage have issues, but will work when disabling lockdown for the selected web page (while keeping it globally on). Which is not ideal but better than nothing.
