Feature Request: Explore Touch ID Verification Support

[vkhitrin]

Hi folks,

Should this recommendation be discussed in the community Slack/feedback or as part of the open-source utils?
If this is outside the scope of being natively (part of the application) exposed in Raycast, we can discuss it here.
Note: I am not sure if v8 will allow us to achieve this. We can explore https://github.com/emilbayes/macos-touchid to see if it works.

Potential use cases:

• Theoretically, the Bitwarden extension can be modified to unlock the database using Touch ID instead of providing the master password (refer to https://gist.github.com/mietzen/f383d87c0973c1af877b39e09b50021e).
• Developers wish to create an extension and allow only authorized users to modify settings.

Okay, I tried this briefly, and it sort of works.
For those who are curious:

(Ignore typos in the video 😢)
For those with an Apple Silicon Mac, you must build https://github.com/emilbayes/macos-touchid for arm64.
I might publish a sample repo on the steps to do it.

Edit:

Sample extension, https://github.com/vkhitrin/raycast-touch-id-sample.
