Description

Linux credential and passkey workflows can be explored through a proposed XDG portal service with WebAuthn support. It is useful for developers testing how desktop apps might request credentials through a standard D-Bus interface.

Credential services are security-sensitive and may be experimental. Use test accounts first and review which applications can request or store authentication data.
