Crate bitwarden_autotype 

Bitwarden Autotype

Provides encrypted IPC channels for use with the Bitwarden Desktop Autotype GA implementation, using [bitwarden_ipc].

The crate is WASM-only (everything lives behind the wasm feature and is re-exported from @bitwarden/sdk-internal). It has no Autotype logic of its own; it contains the typed, Noise-encrypted channels for use between the two desktop processes.

Channels

Request	Direction	Payload	Response
AutotypeSetEnabledRequest	render → main	enabled: bool	{ success: bool }
AutotypeSetKeyboardShortcutRequest	render → main	shortcut: Vec<String>	{ success: bool }
AutotypeListRunningAppsRequest	render → main	(none)	{ apps: AutotypeRunningApp[] }
AutotypeGetCredentialsRequest	main → render	app: AutotypeRunningApp	{ credentials?: { username, password } }

Each process registers the handlers for the requests it receives, backed by its own driver:

• Main implements AutotypeDriver and calls registerAutotypeHandlers. These handlers only accept requests from the desktop render process.
• Render implements AutotypeRenderDriver and calls registerAutotypeRenderHandlers. These handlers only accept requests from the desktop main process.

Tests

Coverage lives in the TypeScript integration tests under e2e/wasm/tests/autotype/, which test the serialize → encrypt → decrypt → deserialize path over a paired in-memory transport.

Run the tests with npm run e2e:wasm from the repository root.

Modules

wasm

Wasm support module for autotype. WASM bindings for the autotype IPC requests, exposed to the clients through @bitwarden/sdk-internal.
