Is there a way to recover our queries from the dev tools console after Kibana has crashed on the browser?

The queries in Dev Tools should be stored in local storage. If you reload Console, they should still be around. Are they not?

No, I got that session crash error... I did inspect in chrome and the local storage was empty...

Ahh! What a bummer. I think you're out of luck then ☹

Is there maybe a plan to let us save the console in an index, like maybe an auto save or snapshot?

I don't believe there has been any discussion regarding this, but you can open up a [feature request](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Feature_request.md).
