To do this, manually enter a simple and easy-to-remember first part of your password, then use the YubiKey to enter a strong second part of your password. We recommend you use the YubiKey in static password mode for only part of your password. If you do go this route, however, they do recommend: That, in a sense, removes a layer of security, which I think actually defeats the purpose of the YubiKey.
However, this will store your Master Password in a plain text way-meaning the YubiKey will act like a keyboard, and any place you have your cursor it’ll type out your Master Password making it easier to steal. If you don’t want that, YubiKey has a Core Static Password feature that does what you’re describing. That is the purpose of the YubiKey, to add security. By default, the YubiKey works as 2FA adding a layer of security to your 1Password account.
