Detailed Description

Interface for intercepting and modifying HTTP requests and their bodies before dispatch.

Implement this class to apply custom logic to HTTP requests before they are sent. Typical use cases include injecting authentication tokens, customizing headers, modifying the request URL, or altering the request body.

This is useful for logging, request signing, transforming payloads, or enforcing global rules. The interceptor is called just before the request is dispatched.
