Expand description
Hard limits enforced by the Nostr protocol primitives.
Centralising every spec-mandated byte length, length cap, and tunable cost ceiling in a single namespace makes it easy to:
- bound caller-side validation against the same numbers the parsers and validators use internally;
- audit the surface for drift relative to the cited NIPs;
- cite the value in user-facing documentation without chasing the constant down through nested modules.
Each entry below is either a re-export of the canonical constant
that lives next to its consumer, or a pub const defined here when
the source value is currently pub(crate) / private but still
protocol-binding.
§Stability
Removing a constant from this module is a breaking change. Adding new constants is additive. Renaming requires a deprecation cycle.
