Can I store the passkey for my 1Password account on a Yubikey?

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you, things have been crazy gearing up for the unlock 1Password with a passkey public beta launch!

Will it ever be possible to have a backup door without having any trusted device available?

As you have discovered already, our answer to this is the recovery code that was introduced during the private beta. This 69-character code will be part of the process in regaining access if you somehow lose access to your passkey and all your trusted device. You can save this recovery code in a safe location anywhere you'd like as you can do with traditional accounts secured by an account password and Secret Key.

And for those who don't know where to keep their recovery codes safe, we have a blog post on our website giving some examples: Where to Store Your 1Password Emergency Kit.

So the backup way to go is: So in case of all all trusted devices are lost I can use the recovery key without any passkey

You've hit the nail on the head there. You can generate a recovery code and use it in the event that you somehow lose access to your passkey and all your trusted devices. You will still need access to your email address since this is part of the verification step to confirm ownership of the 1Password account. Then once you're back in the account, you can save a new passkey to the account and continue as usual.
