It’s a trusted app/extention where you put your secret key “nsec”. When using nostr apps (clients) you don’t want to give each client your nsec for security reasons so the client can create the event for you (such as posting a new note) and send it to your remote signer to sign it with your nsec and then hand it back to the client to publish it to the network.
