No, you cannot add a password to the Passwords app programmatically. The Passwords app is designed to manage and store passwords, passkeys, and verification codes, but it does not provide an API for programmatically adding passwords. However, you can import passwords from another credential manager or export them, as mentioned in the session Streamline sign-in with passkey upgrades and credential managers.
