Overview ¶

Command generate_kat_vectors reproduces the fixed cryptographic vectors used by the Rust tests independently from the Python generator.

Cryptographic operations are delegated to Go's crypto packages. ChaCha20- Poly1305, BLAKE2b, and HKDF come from the Go team's golang.org/x/crypto module because the repository supports Go 1.23, where they are not all available in the standard library. The multi-opening values are derived by scripts/derive_multi_opening.py and documented in doc/multi-opening-fixture.md.
