  We construct local probes in the static patch of Euclidean dS$_3$ gravity.
These probes are Wilson line operators, designed by exploiting the Chern-Simons
formulation of 3D gravity. Our prescription uses non-unitary representations of
$so(4)\simeq su(2)_L\times su(2)_R$, and we evaluate the Wilson line for states
satisfying a singlet condition. We discuss how to reproduce the Green's
functions of massive scalar fields in dS$_3$, the construction of bulk fields,
and the quasinormal mode spectrum. We also discuss the interpretation of our
construction in Lorentzian signature in the inflationary patch, via
$SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ Chern-Simons theory.
