I need a simple integrity check for text-based inputs where re-hashing and comparing is sufficient.

This feature provides a lightweight integrity check for text-based inputs by generating a hash and later re-hashing the same text to compare results. It helps detect accidental changes or tampering without requiring complex cryptographic workflows.

This feature enables a simple integrity verification process for text-based inputs by hashing the original content and storing the resulting digest. When the text needs to be validated, the system re-hashes the current version and compares the new digest to the stored value. If the digests match, the text is considered unchanged; if they differ, the text has been modified. The feature is intended for scenarios where straightforward re-hash-and-compare validation is sufficient and where a full digital signature or PKI-based solution is unnecessary. It is especially useful for detecting accidental edits, copy/paste issues, transmission errors, or unexpected modifications in stored configuration, metadata, or user-provided fields. The feature can be applied to any deterministic, text-based payload where consistent normalization is maintained. It supports repeatable verification workflows such as “store hash at creation time, verify at read time” or “hash before export and confirm after import.” The primary benefit is a quick, low-overhead way to confirm content integrity using a familiar and widely supported technique. It can be used in validation pipelines, audit checks, and automated tests where comparing a hash is more practical than comparing full text content.
