1 year ago I believe there is no API for bookmarks, but here's an example of scraping the favorites/upvotes pages to extract the items! https://github.com/archivy/archivy-hn/blob/main/archivy_hn/__init__.py
The current bookmark system is purely local but I think at least one other HN app has managed to hook into the HN favorites system for saving bookmarks to a user. This should be added (and made the default for logged in users), perhaps the terminology should also be changed in that case so that it says "Favorite" for logged in users and "Bookmark" for regular users.
