## When to use this skill
**ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:**
- Biometric authentication (TouchID, FaceID, fingerprint)
- Securing sensitive actions with biometric confirmation
- Fallback when biometric hardware is unavailable
**Trigger phrases include:**
- "biometric", "Face ID", "Touch ID", "fingerprint", "biometric login"
## How to use this skill
1. **Install the biometric plugin**:
```bash
cargo add tauri-plugin-biometric
```
2. **Register the plugin** in your Tauri builder:
```rust
tauri::Builder::default()
.plugin(tauri_plugin_biometric::init())
```
3. **Configure capabilities** in `src-tauri/capabilities/default.json`:
```json
{ "permissions": ["biometric:allow-authenticate", "biometric:allow-status"] }
```
4. **Check availability and authenticate from the frontend**:
```typescript
import { authenticate, status } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-biometric';
const bioStatus = await status();
if (bioStatus.isAvailable) {
await authenticate('Confirm your identity', { allowDeviceCredential: true });
}
```
5. **Implement fallback** for devices without biometric support (PIN or password entry)
6. **Pair with stronghold plugin** for unlocking encrypted secrets after biometric confirmation
## Outputs
- Biometric authentication flow with availability check
- Fallback strategy for unsupported devices
- Integration pattern with secure storage
