SSH Public Key (Ed25519)
An OpenSSH-format Ed25519 public key (the shareable half of the key pair) — a single line of algorithm, Base64 key blob, and comment, for testing SSH public-key parsers and authorized_keys tooling.

What is a .pub file?
A .pub file holds an SSH public key in the single-line OpenSSH format — an algorithm name (such as ssh-ed25519), a Base64-encoded key blob, and an optional comment. It is the shareable half of an SSH key pair, added to a server's authorized_keys to grant access.
How to use this file
Use an example .pub to test SSH public-key parsers, authorized_keys tooling, and key-format converters, or to verify fingerprint computation. Sample key material only.
