Overview

OneAuthClient is the core class of the 1auth SDK. It handles all interactions with the passkey authentication system including:

• User registration and authentication
• Transaction signing with multiple UX modes
• Cross-chain intent submission
• Token swaps

Constructor

import { OneAuthClient } from "@rhinestone/1auth";
 
const client = new OneAuthClient({
  providerUrl: "https://passkey.1auth.app",
  clientId: "my-app",
  sponsorship: {
    accessTokenUrl: "/api/sponsorship/access-token",
    extensionTokenUrl: "/api/sponsorship/extension-token",
  },
  theme: {
    mode: "dark",
    accent: "#6366f1",
  },
  recovery: {
    // Passkey recovery is attempted first. This controls only the fallback.
    fallback: { type: "verified-identity" },
  },
});

Config Options

Account recovery fallback

Passkey-based recovery is always attempted first. Configure recovery.fallback to decide what account creation does when the selected passkey provider cannot support it:

const client = new OneAuthClient({
  recovery: {
    fallback: { type: "verified-identity" },
  },
});

• backup-file — default; ask the user to save an encrypted recovery file.
• verified-identity — rely on the verified email or OAuth recovery guardian.
• block — refuse account creation unless passkey-based recovery succeeds.

Authentication Methods

authenticate

Authenticate using the verified identity's current account state. The server selects registration when no account exists, login when a usable passkey exists, and recovery when the account has no usable passkey or the authentication ceremony is rejected. Identity and recovery UI stay in 1auth, while WebAuthn runs in the top-level app page.

const result = await client.authenticate();
 
if (result.success) {
  console.log("Address:", result.session.accountAddress); // typed `0x${string}`
}

authenticate({ flow: "login" }) and authenticate({ flow: "create-account" }) pass the requested intent as a hint; the server remains authoritative for account-state classification.

getSession

Return the current session as an AuthResult. The stored bearer is verified with the passkey service, and a rejected session disconnects the client.

const session = await client.getSession();
 
if (session.success) {
  console.log("Address:", session.session.accountAddress);
} else if (session.error.code === "APP_ORIGIN_SESSION_REQUIRED") {
  await client.authenticate();
}

Asset Methods

getAssets

Fetches a unified portfolio across mainnets and testnets by account address. This uses your configured sponsorship.accessToken to send an app JWT to the 1auth provider before any balance data is returned.

const assets = await client.getAssets({
  accountAddress: "0x1111111111111111111111111111111111111111",
});
 
console.log("All balances:", assets.balances);
console.log("Mainnet balances:", assets.mainnets.balances);
console.log("Testnet balances:", assets.testnets.balances);

getAssets() is exception-based. Missing sponsorship, token callback failures, and portfolio request failures reject with an Error; handle the call with try/catch.

Signing Methods

signWithModal

Full-screen modal with transaction details:

const result = await client.signWithModal({
  accountAddress: "0x...",
  challenge: "0x...",
  description: "Review and sign",
  transaction: {
    actions: [{ type: "custom", label: "Approve action" }],
  },
});

The 1auth iframe renders review, then the SDK runs WebAuthn on the exact top-level application origin and returns the verified signature. The flow requires an active session and correlates iframe approval by exact window source, provider origin, request ID, and per-modal nonce.

experimental_clear_signing

Set experimental_clear_signing: true to evaluate 1auth's visible review iframe for supported signing flows. The user reviews the payload before the passkey ceremony starts; the browser's WebAuthn prompt is still shown.

const client = new OneAuthClient({
  providerUrl: "https://passkey.1auth.app",
  clientId: "my-app",
  experimental_clear_signing: true,
});
 
const result = await client.sendIntent({
  accountAddress: "0x...",
  targetChain: 8453,
  calls: [{ to: "0x...", data: "0x..." }],
});

Per-call options can override the client setting:

await client.sendIntent({
  accountAddress: "0x...",
  targetChain: 8453,
  calls: [{ to: "0x...", data: "0x..." }],
  experimental_clear_signing: false,
});

The option applies to sendIntent and sendBatchIntent. signMessage, signTypedData, and signWithModal always show the review before WebAuthn. It does not apply to signup, login, recovery, or permission-grant dialogs. See Signing for limitations and failure behavior.

Intent Execution

sendIntent

Submit cross-chain intents to the Rhinestone orchestrator.

const result = await client.sendIntent({
  accountAddress: "0x...",
  targetChain: 8453,
  calls: [
    {
      to: "0x...",
      data: "0x...",
      value: parseEther("0.1"),
      label: "Mint NFT", // Optional — shown in the sign dialog
      sublabel: "0.10 USDC",
      icon: "https://your-app.example/nft.svg", // Optional fallback icon
    },
  ],
  closeOn: "completed",
});
 
if (result.success) {
  console.log("TX Hash:", result.transactionHash);
}

sendIntent() is result-based for sponsorship failures. Missing configuration returns success: false with error.code === 'MISSING_APP_CREDENTIALS'. Access-token or extension-token failures return success: false with error.code === 'SPONSORSHIP_FETCH_FAILED'; the visible dialog may first offer its prepare retry flow.

sendBatchIntent() uses a different result shape. It reports top-level failures through its own optional errorCode and error fields rather than a nested error.code, and some paths populate neither — a failed access-token fetch returns only success: false with empty results, surfacing the reason through SDK telemetry instead. Missing sponsorship sets error. See Troubleshooting for the full list and how to read it.

Each call in calls is an IntentCall and accepts four optional UI fields:

With Token Requests (Output-First)

Use tokenRequests to specify what tokens a target-chain call needs before it executes. The orchestrator determines the optimal path to deliver them from the user's assets across any chain.

import { encodeFunctionData, parseUnits } from "viem";
 
const USDC_BASE = "0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913";
const amount = parseUnits("100", 6);
const transferData = encodeFunctionData({
  abi: erc20Abi,
  functionName: "transfer",
  args: ["0xRecipient...", amount],
});
 
const result = await client.sendIntent({
  accountAddress: "0x...",
  targetChain: 8453,
  calls: [
    {
      to: USDC_BASE,
      data: transferData,
      label: "Send USDC",
      sublabel: "100 USDC",
    },
  ],
  tokenRequests: [
    {
      token: USDC_BASE,
      amount,
    },
  ],
  closeOn: "completed",
});

This is ideal for app actions such as transfers, deposits, and purchases that need an output token before execution. For a plain swap where the user only receives the output token, call sendIntent with calls: [] rather than adding placeholder calldata.

Pass waitForHash: true if you need a transaction hash. Otherwise, rely on intentId + getIntentStatus.

grantPermissions

Grant a scoped SmartSession permission to an app-owned session key. 1auth opens the permission review, collects the user's passkey approval, and submits the install/enable transaction. Your app sends only the public sessionKeyAddress; keep the private key in your own signer.

import { definePermissions, OneAuthClient } from "@rhinestone/1auth";
import { generatePrivateKey, privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";
import { parseUnits } from "viem";
 
const oneAuth = new OneAuthClient({
  providerUrl: "https://passkey.1auth.app",
  clientId: "my-app",
  sponsorship: {
    accessTokenUrl: "/api/sponsorship/access-token",
    extensionTokenUrl: "/api/sponsorship/extension-token",
  },
});
 
const privateKey = generatePrivateKey();
const sessionKeyAddress = privateKeyToAccount(privateKey).address;
const now = Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000);
const validUntil = now + 24 * 60 * 60;
 
const permissions = definePermissions({
  address: mUSD,
  name: "mUSD",
  abi: erc20Abi,
  functions: {
    mint: {
      params: {
        to: { condition: "equal", value: accountAddress },
        amount: { condition: "equal", value: parseUnits("0.1", 6) },
      },
    },
  },
});
 
const result = await oneAuth.grantPermissions({
  accountAddress,
  targetChains: [84532],
  sessionKeyAddress,
  validAfter: now,
  validUntil,
  maxUses: 25,
  ...permissions,
});

grantPermissions() also reports sponsorship failures as structured results: MISSING_APP_CREDENTIALS when sponsorship is not configured and SPONSORSHIP_FETCH_FAILED when the access-token callback fails.

After this grant succeeds, the app can prepare and submit a matching mUSD.mint(accountAddress, parseUnits('0.1', 6)) intent with its session key. That later mint does not open another 1auth user-signature dialog; the SmartSession validator enforces the to and amount constraints on-chain.

For bridge or cross-chain swap sessions, include a bridge claim permission with crossChainPermits. Selector permissions still describe the destination-chain calls; crossChainPermits describes the source-chain Permit2 claim that funds the route.

import {
  createCrossChainPermission,
  definePermissions,
} from "@rhinestone/1auth";
import { parseUnits } from "viem";
import { arbitrumSepolia, baseSepolia } from "viem/chains";
 
const ARB_SEPOLIA = 421614;
const BASE_SEPOLIA = 84532;
const amount = parseUnits("0.1", 6);
const now = Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000);
const validUntil = now + 86400;
const usdcOnArb = "0x75faf114eafb1BDbe2F0316DF893fd58CE46AA4d";
 
const swap = definePermissions({
  address: rwaSwap,
  name: "RWASwap",
  abi: rwaSwapAbi,
  functions: {
    swap: {
      params: {
        usdcIn: { condition: "equal", value: amount },
        recipient: { condition: "equal", value: accountAddress },
      },
    },
  },
});
 
const bridge = createCrossChainPermission({
  from: { chain: baseSepolia, token: mUSDOnBase, maxAmount: amount },
  to: { chain: arbitrumSepolia, token: usdcOnArb, recipient: accountAddress },
  validAfter: BigInt(now),
  validUntil: BigInt(validUntil),
  settlementLayers: ["ACROSS"],
});
 
await oneAuth.grantPermissions({
  accountAddress,
  // Destination chain for swap; source chain for Permit2 claim.
  targetChains: [ARB_SEPOLIA],
  sourceChains: [BASE_SEPOLIA],
  sessionKeyAddress,
  validAfter: now,
  validUntil,
  maxUses: 25,
  permissions: swap.permissions,
  crossChainPermits: [bridge],
  contracts: swap.contracts,
});

The source chain must be in sourceChains. During settlement, Permit2 verifies the claim by calling isValidSignature on the source-chain account, so the SmartSession validator must be installed and enabled there too.

Plain swaps

Plain swaps use sendIntent with an empty calls array and one or more tokenRequests:

import { parseUnits } from "viem";
 
const USDC_BASE = "0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913";
const result = await client.sendIntent({
  accountAddress: "0x...",
  targetChain: 8453,
  calls: [],
  tokenRequests: [
    {
      token: USDC_BASE,
      amount: parseUnits("100", 6),
    },
  ],
  sourceAssets: ["0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000"],
});

For routes that fund target-chain execution, use sendIntent or walletClient.sendCalls with real calls plus explicit tokenRequests. Do not pass dummy data: '0x' calls or self-transfers just to make an intent shape fit.

Utility Methods

getIntentStatus

Poll for transaction completion:

const status = await client.getIntentStatus(intentId);
console.log(status.status); // 'pending' | 'completed' | 'failed'

setTheme

Update theme at runtime:

client.setTheme({
  accent: "#10b981",
  mode: "dark",
});

prewarm

Load the dialog ahead of the first user interaction so it opens instantly. The SDK already pre-connects (DNS/TLS) at construction; prewarm() goes further and loads the dialog bundle + font into a hidden iframe, so when the user opens a real dialog it paints from cache instead of doing a cold load.

Call it on a likely-intent signal — hover or focus of your sign-in / pay button — so pages where the user never authenticates don't pay for the dialog iframe:

<button
  onClick={() => client.authenticate()}
  onPointerEnter={() => client.prewarm()}
  onFocus={() => client.prewarm()}
>
  Sign in
</button>

prewarm() is idempotent and best-effort: it never throws and never blocks a real open (a failed warm just falls back to a normal load). It resolves true once the dialog bundle has loaded. It loads a dedicated, side-effect-free warm route (it runs no auth flow and creates no backend state), which still warms the shared bundle every dialog flow reuses. Call client.destroyPrewarm() to release the hidden iframe when auth is no longer likely on the current view.

Error handling

SDK methods preserve machine-readable codes and provider diagnostics for signing, intent, simulation, sponsorship, and network failures.

const result = await client.sendIntent({ ... })
 
if (!result.success) {
  console.error(result.error?.code, result.error?.details)
}

See Error Codes and Diagnostics for the complete code reference, OneAuthError usage, simulation links, trace IDs, and recommended application behavior.

Supported Networks

1auth supports all chains in the Rhinestone orchestrator network. Query supported chains at runtime:

import { getSupportedChainIds, getSupportedChains } from "@rhinestone/1auth";
 
// Catalog IDs include every orchestrator-supported EVM chain.
const chainIds = await getSupportedChainIds();
 
// viem Chain objects are returned when the installed viem version defines them.
const chains = await getSupportedChains();
 
// Include testnets or restrict discovery to an explicit allowlist.
const testnets = await getSupportedChains({ includeTestnets: true });
const selected = await getSupportedChains({ chainIds: [1, 8453] });

Mainnet chains include Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, and others. The targetChain parameter in sendIntent() accepts any supported chain ID.

Transaction Lifecycle

When you call sendIntent(), the transaction progresses through these stages:

The closeOn option controls when sendIntent() resolves:

• "preconfirmed" (default) — Resolves quickly, recommended for most use cases
• "claimed" — Resolves at first solver claim (fastest, less certain)
• "filled" — Resolves when the transaction hits the target chain
• "completed" — Waits for full on-chain confirmation (slowest)

For a transaction hash, pass waitForHash: true or poll with getIntentStatus() after the intent resolves.

Notes

• Create one client instance and reuse it
• Use the closeOn parameter to control when promises resolve
• The client handles identity verification and WebAuthn orchestration internally.
• Browser credentials and accounts are isolated by the exact hostname unless a registered shared RP ID and exact server-authorized rpOrigins are configured. The SDK sends only rpId; origins are never client-owned configuration.
