Can you explain what kind of workflow do you mean here?

I mean you start OpenKeychain, touch the NFC token and get the import key screen (see attachment). This is very straightforward, no need to mess with passwords and secret key files.

OpenPGP software requires public keys but tokens don't store them so own public keys need to be transmitted somehow. Fortunately OpenPGP Card spec has a "URL of public key" field.

You can see/set the value this way:

$ gpg --card-edit

Reader ...........: ...
Application ID ...: ...
Version ..........: 2.1
Manufacturer .....: Yubico
...
URL of public key : https://metacode.biz/@wiktor/openpgp/key
Login data .......: wiktor

This is in turn used by OpenKeychain (but also by gpg --card-edit and "fetch" subcommand) to download public parts.

Kind regards,
Wiktor
