# Local Authentication — Foundations Skill
## Purpose
Route Face ID/Touch ID/device-passcode implementation tasks to the
minimum required Local Authentication Knowledge Contracts. v1 scope is
the iOS/iPadOS LocalAuthentication framework API plus the
Keychain-biometric binding seam — no macOS/watchOS-specific behavior, no
general Keychain storage.
## Routing
Load only the contracts relevant to the task. All paths relative to
knowledge/local-authentication/.
- Checking availability or biometry type -> availability-and-biometry-type.md
- Calling evaluatePolicy / choosing a policy -> policy-evaluation.md
- Writing localizedReason or NSFaceIDUsageDescription -> reason-strings-and-info-plist.md
- Handling an LAError -> error-handling.md
- Managing LAContext lifetime or re-enrollment detection -> context-lifecycle.md
- Binding a Keychain item to biometrics -> keychain-biometric-binding.md
- Deciding on or configuring a passcode fallback -> fallback-ux-and-passcode.md
Never load more than the contracts relevant to the specific question.
## Stop Conditions
Stop and report if the requested topic has no matching Knowledge
Contract in knowledge/local-authentication/ — do not guess or fall back
to general knowledge.
- macOS/watchOS-specific LocalAuthentication behavior — Deferred
- General Keychain storage (`SecItemAdd`/`SecItemCopyMatching`/
`SecItemUpdate` for non-biometric-bound items) — owned by `security`
