1Password does have passkeys in the works. https://www.future.1password.com/passkeys/

Does 1Password have a solution planned for migrating to other password managers? Can I migrate my "logins" from Android to 1Password in a single action (as opposed to going account-by-account and adding a new key)?

Being tied to 1Password is better than being tied to iOS, but it's a far cry from real portability.

This doesn't mention anything about passkeys though, only traditional password fields and one-time-passwords. I'd love to see some confirmation that their passkey implementation is going to include the same support.
1Password doesn't support passkeys, so their documentation isn't going to mention this.
Right, the question is: given that 1Password is adding support for passkeys (https://www.future.1password.com/passkeys/), are they going to support exporting them once they are a passkey provider?

I don't see any indication that they are. If they don't plan to support exporting and importing into other ecosystems, then I would argue that their implementation is not portable. I would say that zacharyvoase's concern is still valid in that scenario:

> There's no way to migrate your passkeys between ecosystems

Is 1password part of the cartel or is the spec open enough to run my own passkey sync infra like they do? I cant tell from these docs
