Hi Sheldon

The cookie won't tell you anything, not even if the person is logged
in or not, it you need to check that the session id in the cookie is a
valid one in the database.

I would suggest you instead write your app to either use SIP2 to
authenticate, or the Koha ILS-DI implementation

I hope this helps
