public interface ContextSpec

Marker interface for per-operation parameters.

Some cryptographic algorithms require additional runtime parameters that are distinct from the key material. For example, RSA can require padding parameters such as OAEP or PSS options, while an AEAD cipher might accept a tag length or nonce construction strategy.

Implementations of this interface are provided by the library for algorithms that need them. Applications typically do not implement ContextSpec directly.

Thread safety

Implementations should be immutable, as these specifications may be reused across multiple operations.
