Card info

Keycard applet installation

The install command will install an applet to the card. You can download the status cap file from the status-im/status-keycard releases page.

keycard install -l debug -a PATH_TO_CAP_FILE

In case the applet is already installed and you want to force a new installation you can pass the -f flag.

Card initialization

keycard init -l debug

The init command initializes the card and generates the secrets needed to pair the card to a device.
