Describe the solution you'd like
Same behavior as with the google services, when the phone is unlocked, the chromebook gets unlocked too(see here, demonstration)

Not sure if there is any alternative, its currently one of the things thats holding me back from using microg on my main phone

Not sure if its possible, but would be really nice if it worked without logging in to google(tho unlikely)

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start with the linked Chromebook Smart Lock documentation and demonstration, then inspect the Java/Android project for existing authentication and Google-services integrations. Done would require a defined implementation scope for phone-to-Chromebook unlocking, including whether operation without Google login is supported.
