I use a self hosted vault using keepassXC as a password manager.
I cannot prevent my Macbook from injecting UI theft into my password processes with non apple browsers.
How do I turn off this new feature completely preventing such interactions as viewable in the screenshot?
Thanks in advance,

Then make sure that you have set up KeePassXC with browser integration and disabled the built-in password tools of your browser.
Thank you, KeePassXC browser integration is setup just fine, Apple's defaults upon upgrading the OS and not adhering to system settings are a long standing problem at Apple.

KeepassXC is working fine, its opensource, regularly updated by their community.
If it was working fine, you wouldn't have started a question about it not working fine. Since it's open source, all you need to do is join their community and commit a fix for whatever problem you are having.
No problem using it as long as Apple Passwords no longer invites it's self to collect your logins as it was configured to by default upon upgrading to Sequoia.
It is reasonable for Apple to configure its default settings in a way to support the vast majority of its customers. If you have an unusual use case, perhaps you should try clicking the big blue button that Apple displays on your screen. That should allow you to configure your 3rd party software.

I have used your software and appreciate your work in security, but my current software is working fine, apple simply activated a second password manager when there was already one being used. Yes they attempted to allow the existing software to co-exist in their heavy handed approach but still, its bad form.

Again it's apple's predatory heavy-handed practices disrupting a whole existing marketplace. Again bad form, especially from a company I purchased dozens of computers from before Jobs returned. I am glad Apple is still here, please do not embarrass some of us apple evangelistas. Kind Regards
Apple is a large, very wealthy company. They don't need any volunteer evangelists. If they want evangelists, they can hire them.
This is a user-to-user tech support forum. Nobody cares about any "bad form". People answer questions here for a variety of reasons. But one uniting factor is that we like solving problems. As yet, you haven't even established that you have a problem. We keep asking you if you can click the big blue button and if that leads you to an interface where you can configure KeepassXC to take over password responsibilities. But you keep evading the question. This is annoying. Annoyed people are less inclined to help if there actually is a problem.
Passkeys are not passwords.
Does your other manager handle Passkeys?
As far as I know, use of a Passkey is not required, but it looks like you created one for something.
