I look forward to that, but as it stands currently, only Google and Apple's password managers are supported. All of the support documents mention its tied to the OS and linux support isn't planned. The table on this page shows there are no plans of "Local user verification" or "Passkey sync" when using Linux.
Additionally it also states that to access the passkey, you need to log in to the given Google account.
"Passkeys generated in Chrome on Android are stored in the Google Password Manager. These passkeys are available on all other Android devices as long as Google Password Manager is available and the same user's Google account is signed in."

- stetrain 4y agoSure, if you want to use Chrome + Google password manager. The linked article does say that they will support other password managers on Android at least. And Webauthn/FIDO can be implemented by other browsers and password managers as well. If Google doesn't let third party password manager extensions on Chrome desktop provide passkey support, then that's pretty bad and we'll probably hear from 1Password and LastPass about it since they are also part of the FIDO alliance.
