Research direction

Start by reading the repository's BLE broadcast implementation and the two linked ChaCha references. Clarify which ChaCha variant, security properties, API, and compatibility requirements are intended; the work is done only when those decisions are documented and the implementation is validated for the project's broadcast use case.
