## Description

This library provides a foundational set of tools for managing HTTP communication within PHP web applications. It focuses on the lifecycle of client-server interactions by parsing incoming request data into structured objects and facilitating the construction of protocol-compliant server responses.

The architecture is built around immutable data structures that ensure state consistency throughout the application lifecycle. It incorporates lazy header parsing to reduce memory overhead and utilizes stream-based management for handling request and response payloads. By adhering to established community standards for message interfaces, the library supports interoperability and enables sequential request processing through a middleware-ready pipeline.
