Description
When running in Brave, should auto-detect a Geth instance running on `localhost:8545` with unlocked accounts.
- Should show any unlocked accounts as accounts in this passthrough keyring.
- Should allow signing with these accounts.
Stretch goals:
- Initialize account nicknames using RPC: `db_getString`, params: `['braveEthWallet', 'wallets']`. Will return data of form: `[{name: "Account 1", address: "0xabcdef…"}]`.
Contributor guide
Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by locating the existing keyring implementations and the Brave/Geth RPC integration, then determine how localhost:8545 account discovery and signing fit together. Done means unlocked accounts appear in the passthrough keyring and can sign; nickname initialization is an optional stretch goal.
