i had to write a python script to create the json for the bitcoin-core descriptor wallet, not sure if anyone else has done this yet but i can release this.
its basically:
bitcoin-cli createwallet nostr
bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=nostr importdescriptors '[{"desc":"tr(<wif-nsec>)#0d08ujnx","active":false,"timestamp":1697958000,"internal":true}]'
then bitcoin-core will have access to all your nostr onchain txs
