Description
Current Arcane user identity.
Overview
Arcane.user reads the privacy-minimized identity bound to the current host
session. Desktop Core can return a host-account identity; Android returns an
anonymous local-session identity with null account identifiers.
Availability and security
user.current takes no parameters, requires identity.read, and is available
on Core and Android. Use only fields returned by the host and do not infer a
cross-device or durable person identity from the record.
Example
const access = await globalThis.Arcane.capabilities.list();
const canReadIdentity = access.methods.includes('user.current');
console.log('Bound identity read admitted:', canReadIdentity);
Members
