Should I add more coolant while the engine is cold/not running to the full line? I don't think there's any issues with it being overfilled, looks like there's a good amount of empty space above the full line.

If it is above the add line (cold) there is no need to add coolant. Since coolant expands and contracts with temperature, you see those variations depending on the coolant temp. That is completely normal. If the engine is really hot (fast driving, uphill driving, or towing), then the coolant may be a bit over the full line. That is OK as well.
