Description

I wanted to share a tweet with a chat contact. The Twitter app showed Keybase in the share destinations page, but selecting Keybase didn't work.

The first time I tried, it opened Keybase to the screen I had been on the last time I was using Keybase, but there was no content from the tweet visible and no way to share it with a contact.

The second and third times I tried to share the tweet to Keybase, I was brought to the Keybase app login page, even though I was already authenticated.

Research direction

Reproduce sharing a tweet from Twitter to Keybase on Android, then trace the share handoff and the login screen it reaches. Done means the tweet content is available to share with a chat contact without requiring an unnecessary login.
