If you want to set a response header, then should look to the
source of ngx_http_headers_module, which is responsible for
adding headers to output.
For reading cookies you can look to the $http_cookie variable
implementation.
Please, use "grep" for search and read the code.
You can implement your module a way easier if you just provide
a directive, that can use the variable to read some value, and
adds a variable to set the value.
Then it can be used like this:
protection_value $cookie_key;
add_header Set-Cookie "key=$protection_value";
You can also check the ngx_http_secure_link_module:
