WalletClient, an EIP-1193 provider, a viem LocalAccount, or an ethers.Wallet qualifies as a signer, which means you can keep using whichever auth or wallet stack you already trust.

The auth provider’s only job in this diagram is to produce the signer that goes intotoStartaleSmartAccount. Everything downstream (bundler, paymaster, EntryPoint) is identical regardless of how the user logged in.
Why social login + AA is a good combination
| Pain point | What AA + social login fixes |
|---|---|
| Users do not have native ETH | Sponsor gas via the SCS paymaster, or charge a stable token. |
| Seed phrase friction | The auth provider derives keys from the social login; the smart account address is counterfactual. |
| Lost access | Use Social recovery so a guardian set can rotate the signer. |
| Repeated signature prompts | Issue a Smart Session so scoped actions skip the prompt. |
First-party integrations
Dynamic
Embedded wallets, social and email login, MPC and WebAuthn key custody. Exposes a viem
WalletClient directly.Privy
Email, OAuth, and external wallet login. Exposes an EIP-1193 provider you can wrap with

Any provider that exposes one of the four signer shapes will work. The integration shape is always:| Symbol | Source | Role |
|---|---|---|
createWalletClient / custom | viem | Wrap an EIP-1193 provider as a viem WalletClient. |
