ctxrequest
Ctxrequest is a software design concept and, in some implementations, a library mechanism for propagating contextual information through the lifecycle of a request in asynchronous or distributed systems. The primary purpose is to make request-scoped data available to handlers, services, and downstream calls without relying on global state. This contextual data typically travels alongside the request as it moves through middleware, processors, and across service boundaries.
A ctxrequest typically centers on a context object that is created at the start of a request
Common data carried by a ctxrequest includes a request identifier, authentication and user information, authorization scopes,
Usage and considerations: ctxrequest is widely used in web frameworks, RPC stacks, and task schedulers to enable
