Thanks for this! Was driving me insane for whatever reason the solana-keygen recover command without the prompt generates a whack recovered pubkey... of note, I only have one keypair in my Phantom Wallet plugin 🤷🏻‍♂️

Any idea how to generate the seed phrase from the keypair? Thanks again!

Doesn't work. It is impossible to type anything after the [recover] seed phrase prompt
