Hello Lance_Lawton! 👋

Thanks for asking! There isn't any need for you to save items in iCloud Keychain or in the built-in password manager inside of any of the browsers that you're using. The beauty of 1Password is that you can store everything in your 1Password vault and have it be available on all of your devices and in all of your browsers.

In fact, I'd go further to say that you should disable the built-in password manager in all of your browsers so that you don't accidentally run into a situation where some items are saved in the built-in password manager and others are saved in 1Password. Or a situation where you have different passwords for the same website saved in both and are unsure of which password is the most recent. We have a guide here that will show you how to disable the built-in password manager: Turn off the built-in password manager in your browser

Let me know if that helps and if you have any followup questions. 😊
