6//! Call context for server-side interceptors.
7//!
8//! [`CallContext`] carries metadata about the current JSON-RPC or REST call,
9//! allowing [`ServerInterceptor`](crate::ServerInterceptor) implementations
10//! to make access-control and auditing decisions.
11//!
12//! # HTTP headers
13//!
14//! The [`http_headers`](CallContext::http_headers) field carries the raw HTTP
15//! request headers (lowercased keys, last-value-wins for duplicates). This
16//! enables interceptors to inspect `Authorization`, `X-Request-ID`, or any
17//! other header without coupling the SDK to a specific HTTP library.
18//!
19//! ```rust,no_run
20//! use a2a_protocol_server::CallContext;
21//!
22//! let ctx = CallContext::new("SendMessage")
23//!     .with_http_header("authorization", "Bearer tok_abc123")
24//!     .with_http_header("x-request-id", "req-42");
25//!
26//! assert_eq!(ctx.http_headers().get("authorization").map(String::as_str),
27//!            Some("Bearer tok_abc123"));
28//! ```
