Works very well with Claude Code. Every time the AI assistant or an agent request access to a resource requiring credentials, you get a 1Password prompt asking you to allow or deny access. I am doing it with the op CLI tool so the terminal or the assistant never sees the credentials. At least that is the theory 🙃

This should be* a wake up call to anyone using Facebook to promote their business. It's kind of difficult to do that if you can't link to your website or online shop.
* I say "should be" because anyone with a brain would realize that social media mega sites like Facebook should not be relied upon to fully support their business. But there seem to be a lot of people on Facebook with no brain. #DeleteFacebook
