### Keyword Interactions
525
525
526
- Keyword behavior MAY be defined in terms of the annotation results of
527
- [ subschemas] ( #root ) and/or adjacent keywords (keywords within the same schema
528
- object) and their subschemas. Such keywords MUST NOT result in a circular
529
- dependency. Keywords MAY modify their behavior based on the presence or absence
530
- of another keyword in the same [ schema object] ( #schema-document ) .

+ Keywords MAY modify their behavior based on the presence or absence of another

+ #### Annotations as an Interaction Mechanism
533
+
534
+ This document uses annotations as a mechanism to describe the interactions
535
+ between keywords, however this is for illustrative purposes and not
536
+ prescriptive. Implementations SHOULD use whatever mechanisms makes sense given
537
+ their architecture and language needs in order to achieve the specified
538
+ behaviors. Implementations are not required to collect annotations in order to
539
+ manage keyword interaction.
540
+
541
+ Supplementary specifications are also encouraged to use annotations to describe
542
+ any interactions of the keywords they define.
