I am debugging this app using the network panel. At one point in the flow the app launches a new window/tab and the network calls after that point are lost. Is there a way to make sure the network panel is open by default for this session or this domain or just all the time?

I can't find any built-in setting for this, nor any extension that auto-opens the Network Monitor (or other developer tools).

As a workaround, can you test a modified version of the app that re-uses a named window/tab instead of a blank window?

You can consider to use the Live Http Headers extension.
