  • pass-import

    A pass extension for importing data from most existing password managers

  • Last time I looked into your implementation, it looks very neat, but I would like to store each passkey to a file and encrypt with GPG. I use https://www.passwordstore.org/ like mechanism to store all my passwords.

  • webauthn

    Web Authentication: An API for accessing Public Key Credentials

  • > Apple's passkeys do not provide attestation

    Apple has their own anonymous attestation format[1] that some (unclear which?) of their WebAuthn authenticators support.

    In principle the relying party could use this to verify the authenticity of the authenticator back up to Apple's WebAuthn root CA[2]. In practice, I'm not sure if that attestation is included by default (or whether significant portions of users opt out of it, when prompted by their browser).
