Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sensitive-data reveal | Choose sensitive-data reveal when a normally masked or redacted value needs a deliberate temporary reveal, hide, peek, copy, partial reveal, reauthentication, or audited access path. | The value is masked by default unless the user is actively entering it and the platform-specific control intentionally permits display. | Supports masked input for non-password sensitive values, show and hide controls, copy button behavior, secret-key and token examples, and visual-obfuscation limits. |
