+    \ingroup CertManager
+    \brief Sign a certificate or CSR using a callback function.
+
+    This function signs a certificate or Certificate Signing Request (CSR)
+    using a user-provided signing callback. This allows external signing
+    implementations (e.g., TPM, HSM) without requiring the crypto callback
+    infrastructure, making it suitable for FIPS-compliant applications.
+
+    The function performs the following:
+    1. Hashes the certificate/CSR body according to the signature algorithm
+    2. Encodes the hash (RSA) or prepares it for signing (ECC)
+    3. Calls the user-provided callback to perform the actual signing
+    4. Encodes the signature into the certificate/CSR DER structure
+
+    \param requestSz Size of the certificate body to sign (from Cert.bodySz).
+    \param sType Signature algorithm type (e.g., CTC_SHA256wRSA,
+                 CTC_SHA256wECDSA).
+    \param buf Buffer containing the certificate/CSR DER data to sign.
+    \param buffSz Total size of the buffer (must be large enough for signature).
+    \param keyType Type of key used for signing (RSA_TYPE, ECC_TYPE, etc.).
+    \param signCb User-provided signing callback function.
+    \param signCtx Context pointer passed to the signing callback.
+    \param rng Random number generator (may be NULL if not needed).
+
+    \return Size of the signed certificate/CSR on success.
+    \return BAD_FUNC_ARG if signCb is NULL or other parameters are invalid.
+    \return BUFFER_E if the buffer is too small for the signed certificate.
+    \return MEMORY_E if memory allocation fails.
+    \return Negative error code on other failures.
+
+    _Example_
+    \code
+    Cert cert;
+    byte derBuf[4096];
+    int derSz;
+    MySignCtx myCtx;
