Issues with 1Password for Safari
For the last year or so (maybe since the infamous switch to electron? Not sure) the experience on Safari has been broken in more and more novel ways.
Sometimes the extension won’t open, sometimes ...

Thank you for the response, I appreciate the details!
Just to clarify, are these all issues that you're running into personally? Have you run into all of these issues while running the latest version of 1Password for Safari (2.23.3)?
Yes and yes
One thing to note - all of those issues (1p extension locked and can’t unlock while 1p app is unlocked, auto fill not working, etc) are resolved once I quit and relaunch Safari - which is the workaround I’ve been doing thus far. Also - once it works, it stays solid for a few days, then problems come again.
This makes me think it’s not an issue with parsing the html or listening to events from Safari etc, but a corrupted state that the app reaches to after being open for multiple days (I never turn off my mac or quit Safari unless I hit those issues…).
Maybe as a temp relief there can be some backdoor feature to “blow up” (ie reset) the Safari extension state whenever this happens? - even a command line command can be great!
Hope this helps somehow! Thanks again
