…thentication Restricts the FIDO authentication ceremony to locally-available credentials (no QR / nearby-device fallback), matching the legacy FRWebAuthnManager behavior. Exposed on Fido.authenticate, FidoAuthenticationCollector.authenticate (DaVinci), and FidoAuthenticationCallback.authenticate (Journey); defaults to false to preserve existing behavior.

Falls back to options.user.name only when displayName is empty, matching request.displayName which already used displayName unconditionally. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Description
Adds a
preferImmediatelyAvailableCredentialsoption to FIDO authentication, restricting the ceremony to locally-available credentials (no QR / nearby-device fallback), matching the legacyFRWebAuthnManager.signInWith(preferImmediatelyAvailableCredentials:)behavior.Exposed on:
Fido.authenticate(core)FidoAuthenticationCollector.authenticate(DaVinci)FidoAuthenticationCallback.authenticate(Journey)Defaults to
falseto preserve existing behavior. Whentrue, the security-key (cross-platform) request is not built, since a hardware key can never be "immediately available" on the local device, andperformRequests(options: .preferImmediatelyAvailableCredentials)is used to suppress the QR/nearby-device fallback UI.Also includes an unrelated pre-existing bug fix (
request.displayName = options.user.displayNameincreatePlatformRequest) so the WebAuthn Registration Node's configured display name is shown during passkey creation instead of falling back to the username.Sample app (
FidoAuthenticationCallbackView/FidoAuthenticationCollectorView) exposes the new option via a "Local credentials only" toggle.Checklist:
