We really really really need a better auth model here. Most apps request this kind of access. Even with the best of intentions, it is scary. How about @ucan.xyz instead (or as well) ?
Screenshot of a typical atproto authorization screen (as of Apr 2026) where an app can essentially do anything once granted:

Manage profile, posts, likes, and follows, as well as read private prefs.

Create read, update, and delete any public record.

Perform authenticated actions toward any service on your behalf.

UCAN and Iroh *both* reaching v1.0 this week? Smells like a conspiracy.

🤩 IT'S HAPPENING: the "RC" label is getting peeled off UCAN v1.0 at ✨the end of this week✨ If you want something changed here at the 11th hour, speak now or forever hold your peace (or, well, until the 2.0 far in the future)

Tomorrow! UCAN is an authentication system that uses web tokens for granting access to resources, rather than relying on a central authority. Lots of overlap with IPFS projects (including @storacha.network) across web2-2.5-3, and we're excited to see the community calls resume.
