I wrote up my findings on this late last night, so I would greatly appreciate anyone who might be able to give me an independent sanity check that this is actually what's happening.

There is a reason why it is now a forbidden tool in many corporations.

I don't get why people still use postman when you have nice open-source tools such as Bruno [0], which actually can do a lot of what postman does, and more than that you can even import your postman collections.
Thank you so much for sharing this. We're actively looking for alternatives to Postman right now, and would be heavily inclined toward an OSS solution.

If you're OK with a cli app, you can try Hurl [1], it's a cli based on curl and plain text, to run and test HTTP requests (I'm one of the maintainer)
I'm officially a Hurl user - really awesome work! Captures + asserts is exactly how I want to be thinking about API testing. Also, the VSCode extensions for syntax highlighting a .hurl file, and the "Hurl runner" so I can click a button to run a test, are pretty much all the GUI I need.
