+ * @file mapcoder.c
+ * @brief Core implementation of the Mapcode encoding and decoding system
+ *
+ * This file contains the complete implementation of the Mapcode system, which provides
+ * a way to encode any location on Earth into a short alphanumeric code and decode
+ * it back to precise coordinates.
+ *
+ * Key functionality includes:
+ * - Encoding latitude/longitude coordinates to mapcode strings
+ * - Decoding mapcode strings back to coordinates
+ * - Territory-based encoding for shorter codes within specific regions
+ * - Support for high-precision encoding with extra digits
+ * - Multi-alphabet support for international usage
+ * - Territory name handling and lookup functions
+ *
+ * The encoding uses a sophisticated grid system that divides the Earth's surface
+ * into increasingly fine grids, with special handling for different territory
+ * shapes and boundary conditions.

Subject: [PATCH 14/31] Fix critical and major code review issues

- Replace memcmp-based NaN/Inf detection with isnan()/isinf() from <math.h>
  (portable, correct for all NaN bit patterns, and now checks latDeg for Inf too)
- Fix off-by-one in encodeLatLonToSelectedMapcode: > should be >= for index bound
- Remove always-false ASSERT after *s=0 in encodeExtension
- Fix convertFromAbjad/convertToAbjad to null-check strchr return before arithmetic
- Allow TERRITORY_NONE/TERRITORY_UNKNOWN in encodeLatLonToSingleMapcode per docs
- Fix convertUtf16ToUtf8 to return start pointer instead of post-null end pointer
- Explicitly initialize GLOBAL_MAKEISO_PTR (was accidentally correct via NULL)
- Replace sprintf with snprintf in convertToRoman (mapcode_legacy.c)
- Change UWORD from unsigned short int to uint16_t; add #include <stdint.h>
- Replace magic constant 128 with MAX_MAPCODE_RESULT_ASCII_LEN in encoderEngine
- Add regression tests for all fixed bugs in testBugFixes()

Subject: [PATCH 16/31] Fix critical and major code review issues

- Replace memcmp-based NaN/Inf detection with isnan()/isinf() from <math.h>
  (portable, correct for all NaN bit patterns, and now checks latDeg for Inf too)
- Fix off-by-one in encodeLatLonToSelectedMapcode: > should be >= for index bound
- Remove always-false ASSERT after *s=0 in encodeExtension
- Fix convertFromAbjad/convertToAbjad to null-check strchr return before arithmetic
- Allow TERRITORY_NONE/TERRITORY_UNKNOWN in encodeLatLonToSingleMapcode per docs
- Fix convertUtf16ToUtf8 to return start pointer instead of post-null end pointer
- Explicitly initialize GLOBAL_MAKEISO_PTR (was accidentally correct via NULL)
- Replace sprintf with snprintf in convertToRoman (mapcode_legacy.c)
- Change UWORD from unsigned short int to uint16_t; add #include <stdint.h>
- Replace magic constant 128 with MAX_MAPCODE_RESULT_ASCII_LEN in encoderEngine
- Add regression tests for all fixed bugs in testBugFixes()

Subject: [PATCH 18/31] docs: design spec for mapcodelib speed optimization

Two-phase plan (A: local hot-path cleanups; B: precomputed companion
tables) targeting 20-50% wall-time reduction on `time ./unittest` at -O3,
preserving bit-exact output, strict portable C99/C11, and no runtime/heap
growth.

+# mapcodelib speed optimization — design spec
+
+- **Date:** 2026-05-28
+- **Branch:** `feat/optimize` (off `fix/bugfix`)
+- **Author:** Rijn Buve (with Claude)
+
+## 1. Scope & goals
+
+Achieve a substantial speedup on the `mapcoder.c` encode and decode hot paths, measured by `time ./unittest` in `test/` (real wall-clock against the existing unit test suite, which already loops over millions of points).
+
+**Target:** 20–50% wall-time reduction at `-O3`.
+
+### Hard guardrails
+
+- **Bit-exact output.** All existing unit tests must pass unchanged. No test files modified.
+- **Strict portable C99/C11.** No `__builtin_*`, no SIMD intrinsics, no compiler-specific attributes.
+- **No runtime / heap growth.** Per-call stack and heap usage must not increase. Public ABI (struct sizes in `mapcoder.h`) unchanged.
+- **Small static-table growth OK.** Precomputed companion tables in the order of tens of KB are acceptable (negligible against existing data tables in `internal_data.h`).
+
+### Out of scope
+
+- Public API changes.
+- Refactoring unrelated to performance.
+- New features.
+- Build-system changes (CMake, scripts) beyond what's strictly needed to compile.
+- Approach C (loop restructuring, DFA decode parser) — deferred to a future branch if A+B underdeliver.
+
+## 2. Measurement methodology
+
+1. Build with `-O3` exactly as `test/run_normal.sh` does:
+   ```
+   cd mapcodelib && gcc -O3 -c mapcoder.c
+   cd ../test && gcc -O3 unittest.c -lm -lpthread -o unittest ../mapcodelib/mapcoder.o
+   ```
+2. Run `time ./unittest` three times back-to-back; record the best `user` time.
+3. Repeat after each commit that touches `mapcoder.c`.
+
+### Baseline
+
+Capture the baseline on the **first commit** of `feat/optimize` (before any code change) so we have a clean reference number.
+
+### Per-commit reporting
+
+Each optimization commit's message includes:
+
+- `time` output before vs. after (best of 3).
+- Cumulative speedup vs. the baseline.
+- One-line description of the change.
+
+### Test integrity
+
+Every commit must end with `unittest` printing `Unit tests passed` and zero errors. Any commit that regresses tests is rolled back before continuing.
+
+### Noise caveat
+
+The unit test does correctness work (asserts, sprintf, comparisons) in addition to encode/decode, so a 30% speedup of encode/decode core will appear as a smaller wall-time delta (perhaps 10–20%). That is expected; "significant" is judged on the total wall-clock number since that is the measurement method chosen.
+
+## 3. Approach A — Local hot-path cleanups
+
+Discrete, low-risk edits in `mapcoder.c`. Each is independently revertable and individually testable.
+
+### A1. Cache `flags` per iteration in encode/decode loops
+
+In `encoderEngine` (`mapcoder.c:1460`) and `decoderEngine` (`mapcoder.c:2651`), the loop body invokes `IS_NAMELESS(i)`, `IS_RESTRICTED(i)`, `IS_SPECIAL_SHAPE(i)`, `REC_TYPE(i)`, `coDex(i)`, `SMART_DIV(i)` on the same `i`. Each macro re-reads `TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES[i].flags`.
+
+Replace with a single `const int flags = TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES[i].flags;` at the top of the loop body, plus local extracted variables where used more than once.
+
+Same pattern in `firstNamelessRecord` (`mapcoder.c:822`) and `countNamelessRecords` (`mapcoder.c:835`).
+
+### A2. Reorder checks in `fitsInsideBoundaries`
+
+`mapcoder.c:602` checks lat-min, lat-max, lon-range. For mapcode territory boundaries (most are narrow longitudinally relative to the full earth lon range), test longitude band first to maximise early-out. Same logic, same correctness, fewer comparisons on average.
+
+### A3. Length-tracked result assembly in `encoderEngine`
+
+Around `mapcoder.c:1520` the per-result code uses `strcpy` + `strcat` patterns. `strcat` re-scans the destination from the start each time. Replace with `memcpy` using known lengths.
+
+### A4. Speed up `encodeBase31`
+
+`mapcoder.c:1083` emits a base-31 representation by repeated `%31` / `/31`. The compiler turns `/31` into a magic-multiply, but the loop is small. A tight unroll (or const lookup for the common small `nrchars` cases) can help.
+
+### A5. Early-exit in `repackIfAllDigits` / `unpackIfAllDigits`
+
+`mapcoder.c:892`, `:933`. If the input clearly fails the "all digits" precondition (e.g. first non-digit position), bail before any string mutation. The existing code already does some of this; tighten the check.
+
+### Risk per change
+
+Very low; each one is mechanically equivalent. Run full unit tests after each commit.
+
+### Expected gain from A
+
+~10–20% wall-time.
+
+## 4. Approach B — Precomputed companion tables
+
+Core insight: `encoderEngine`/`decoderEngine` loop over a range of records and re-derive metadata (`codex`, `recType`, `isNameless`, `isSpecialShape`, `smartDiv`) from `flags` on every iteration. Approach A caches `flags` per-iteration, but across many iterations we still recompute the same masks/shifts on the same record data. Precompute that metadata into a compact companion table once at library init, and have the hot loops read directly from it.
+
+### B1. Companion arrays sized to `TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES`
+
+Add to `mapcoder.c` at file scope (not exported):
+
+```c
+// One byte per record. Initialized once via initCompanionTables().
+static unsigned char RECORD_CODEX[MAPCODE_BOUNDARY_MAX + 1];      // flags & 31
+static unsigned char RECORD_REC_TYPE[MAPCODE_BOUNDARY_MAX + 1];   // (flags >> 7) & 3
+static unsigned char RECORD_KIND[MAPCODE_BOUNDARY_MAX + 1];       // bit0=nameless, bit1=restricted,
+                                                                  // bit2=specialShape, bit3=hasHeaderLetter
+static unsigned char RECORD_HEADER_LETTER[MAPCODE_BOUNDARY_MAX + 1]; // ENCODE_CHARS[(flags >> 11) & 31]
+static unsigned short RECORD_SMART_DIV[MAPCODE_BOUNDARY_MAX + 1];   // flags >> 16
+```
+
+Per-record overhead: 6 bytes. With ~12,000 records, total ≈ 72 KB of static `.bss`/`.data`. Well within "small additions OK".
+
+### B2. Per-territory derived metadata
+
+```c
+static int TERRITORY_FIRST_NAMELESS[_TERRITORY_MAX + 1];   // -1 if none
+static int TERRITORY_NAMELESS_COUNT[_TERRITORY_MAX + 1];   // 0 if none
+```
+
+Eliminates linear scans in `firstNamelessRecord` (`mapcoder.c:822`) and `countNamelessRecords` (`mapcoder.c:835`), turning O(records-per-territory) into O(1). With ~241 territories, ~2 KB extra.
+
+### B3. One-time initialization
+
+A `static int companion_initialized = 0;` flag and an `initCompanionTables()` function called at the top of every public entry point that uses the data (`encodeLatLonToMapcodes_internal`, `decoderEngine`, etc.). The init computes everything from `TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES` and the flag-extraction macros — guaranteeing the precomputed values are *definitionally* the same as the macros.
+
+**Thread safety.** The public API is not specified as thread-safe for first call; the existing code uses pthread only in tests. Init is idempotent (writes deterministic values), so even under a first-call race the worst case is duplicate work — never wrong values. This assumption is documented inline.
+
+### B4. Replace macro call sites in hot loops only
+
+`IS_NAMELESS(m)` and the other macros stay defined (used in cold paths, debug asserts, and the init function itself). In `encoderEngine`/`decoderEngine` inner loops, switch to direct table reads:
+
+```c
+const unsigned char kind = RECORD_KIND[i];
+const int codex = RECORD_CODEX[i];
+// ...
+```
+
+This decouples hot-loop performance from the bit-pack layout of `flags`.
+
+### B5. Debug-build sanity check
+
+In `#ifdef DEBUG` builds, `initCompanionTables` also asserts that the precomputed values match the macro-derived values for every record. Free correctness guarantee during development; zero cost in `-O3` release.
+
+### Risk
+
+Medium-low. Companion tables are derived directly from the same macros they replace, so by construction they hold identical values. The debug assertions catch any drift if someone later modifies the flag layout.
+
+### Interaction with A1
+
+A1 caches `flags` locally in the very same hot loops that B4 later switches to direct companion-table reads. After B4 lands, the local `flags` cache in those specific loop bodies becomes unused and must be removed as part of that commit. A1 remains useful in any cold-path call site that does not switch to companion tables.
+
+### Expected combined gain from A+B
+
+~20–35% wall-time.
+
+## 5. Workflow
+
+One commit per checkpoint, linear progression:
+
+| # | Commit | Purpose |
+|---|--------|---------|
+| 1 | `chore: branch baseline` | Pin the baseline. Run `time ./unittest` 3× and record best `user` time in commit message. |
+| 2 | `perf: A1 — cache flags per loop iteration` | Smallest, safest first. Re-run timing. |
+| 3 | `perf: A2 — reorder fitsInsideBoundaries checks` | |
+| 4 | `perf: A3 — length-tracked result assembly` | |
+| 5 | `perf: A4 — tighten encodeBase31` | |
+| 6 | `perf: A5 — early-exit in repack/unpack` | |
+| 7 | `perf: B1+B2+B3 — companion tables init` | Tables defined and populated, but not yet read in hot path. Verifies init correctness in isolation. |
+| 8 | `perf: B4 — hot loops read from companion tables` | The main payoff commit. |
+| 9 | `perf: B5 — debug-build sanity check` | Optional polish. |
+
+Each commit ends with:
+
+- Full unit tests green (`Unit tests passed`, 0 errors).
+- `time ./unittest` (best of 3) noted in the commit body, plus cumulative speedup vs. commit #1.
+
+## 6. Risks & mitigations
+
+| Risk | Mitigation |
+|------|------------|
+| A change breaks bit-exact behaviour | Run full test suite after every commit; revert if red. |
+| Companion table values drift from `flags` semantics | B5 debug-build assertion verifies equivalence at init. |
+| Thread-safety regression on first call | `initCompanionTables` is idempotent (deterministic writes). Documented. Safe under existing usage patterns. |
+| Gains too small to justify | Stop after A and reassess; A alone should be ≥10% and is the lowest-risk subset. |
+| Test wall-time too noisy to read signal | Use best-of-3 `user` time (not `real`), build with `-O3`, run on a quiet machine. |
+
+## 7. Success criteria
+
+- **Mandatory:** all unit tests pass after every commit.
+- **Mandatory:** binary size growth ≤ 100 KB (companion tables are ~74 KB; allow margin).
+- **Target:** ≥20% wall-time reduction on `time ./unittest` at `-O3` after commit #8.
+- **Stretch:** ≥30% wall-time reduction.
+- **Stop condition:** if Approach A alone delivers ≥30%, B is optional. If A+B underdeliver vs. 20%, re-evaluate before any further restructuring.

Subject: [PATCH 19/31] docs: implementation plan for mapcodelib speed
 optimization
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Step-by-step plan for Tasks 1-10 (baseline → A1-A5 → B3-B5 → results),
each with explicit file/line targets, code blocks, expected outputs,
and per-step commits.

Also fixes a small inaccuracy in the spec: RECORD_CODEX stores the
computed coDex value (10*(c/5)+(c%5+1)), not the raw flags & 31.

+# mapcodelib speed optimization implementation plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Reduce `time ./unittest` wall time by 20–50% on `-O3` builds while preserving bit-exact output, strict portable C99/C11, and per-call memory footprint.
+
+**Architecture:**
+- **Approach A** (Tasks 2–6): Local hot-path edits in `mapcoder.c` — flag caching, branch reordering, length-tracked string assembly, tighter base-31 encode, and early exits in repack/unpack.
+- **Approach B** (Tasks 7–9): Precomputed static companion tables derived once from `TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES`; hot loops in `encoderEngine`/`decoderEngine` read from them instead of re-deriving from `flags` per iteration.
+
+**Tech Stack:** C99, GCC `-O3`, pthread (test-only), `time` (wall-clock measurement).
+
+**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-28-mapcodelib-optimize-design.md`
+
+**Branch:** `feat/optimize` (already created, currently at design-spec commit `740bfec`).

+
+---
+
+## Task 1: Baseline measurement
+
+**Files:**
+- No source changes. Single commit pins the baseline timing.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Build with -O3**
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/mapcodelib && gcc -O3 -c mapcoder.c
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/test && gcc -O3 unittest.c -lm -lpthread -o unittest ../mapcodelib/mapcoder.o
+```
+
+Expected: clean compile, no warnings/errors. Both `.o` and `unittest` binary produced.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Verify tests pass**
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/test && ./unittest 2>&1 | tail -5
+```
+
+Expected: last lines include `Unit tests passed`. Exit code 0.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Run three timed iterations, capture best `user` time**
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/test
+for i in 1 2 3; do echo "=== run $i ==="; ( time ./unittest >/dev/null ) 2>&1 | grep -E '^(real|user|sys)'; done
+```
+
+Record the **best of three** `user` times — that is the baseline number for all subsequent comparisons. Note it down (call it `T0`).
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Commit baseline marker**
+
+Create an empty commit so the baseline timing lives in git history:
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp
+git commit --allow-empty -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
+chore: pin perf baseline for feat/optimize
+
+Measured `time ./unittest` on -O3 build (best of 3 runs):
+  user time = T0 = <FILL_IN>s
+
+All subsequent perf commits on this branch quote their best user time
+and the cumulative delta vs. this baseline.
+
+Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
+EOF
+)"
+```
+
+Replace `<FILL_IN>` with the actual best-of-three user time from Step 3.
+
+---
+
+## Task 2: A1 — Cache `flags` per iteration in hot loops
+
+**Goal:** Read `TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES[i].flags` once per loop iteration into a local; rewrite macro call sites to use the local. Six call sites in three functions.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `mapcodelib/mapcoder.c` — `encoderEngine` (around line 1487), `decoderEngine` (around line 2710), `firstNamelessRecord` (line 822), `countNamelessRecords` (line 835).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Edit `encoderEngine` inner loop body to cache flags**
+
+Open `mapcodelib/mapcoder.c`. Locate the loop at line 1487:
+
+```c
+for (i = from; i <= upto; i++) {
+    if (fitsInsideBoundaries(&enc->coord32, TERRITORY_BOUNDARY(i))) {
+        if (IS_NAMELESS(i)) {
+```
+
+Replace this loop body (lines 1487–1542 inclusive) with a version that introduces a local `flags` cache. The transformation is mechanical: every `IS_NAMELESS(i)`, `IS_RESTRICTED(i)`, `IS_SPECIAL_SHAPE(i)`, `REC_TYPE(i)`, `coDex(i)`, `HEADER_LETTER(i)` inside the loop body becomes a local-variable read. Keep behavior identical:
+
+```c
+for (i = from; i <= upto; i++) {
+    const int flags = TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES[i].flags;
+    if (fitsInsideBoundaries(&enc->coord32, TERRITORY_BOUNDARY(i))) {
+        const int isNameless    = (flags & 64);
+        const int recType       = (flags >> 7) & 3;
+        const int isRestricted  = (flags & 512);
+        if (isNameless) {
+            encodeNameless(result, enc, ccode, extraDigits, i);
+        }
+        else if (recType > 1) {
+            encodeAutoHeader(result, enc, i, extraDigits);
+        }
+        else if ((i == upto) && isSubdivision(ccode)) {
+            // *** do a recursive call for the parent ***
+            encoderEngine(parentTerritoryOf(ccode), enc, stop_with_one_result, extraDigits, requiredEncoder,
+                          ccode);
+            return;
+        }
+        else // must be grid
+        {
+            // skip IS_RESTRICTED records unless there already is a result
+            if (result_counter || !isRestricted) {
+                const int c = flags & 31;
+                const int codexLocal = 10 * (c / 5) + ((c % 5) + 1);
+                if (codexLocal < 54) {
+                    const char headerletter = (char)((recType == 1) ? ENCODE_CHARS[(flags >> 11) & 31] : 0);
+                    encodeGrid(result, enc, i, extraDigits, headerletter);
+                }
+            }
+        }
+
+        // =========== handle result (if any)
+        if (*result) {
+            result_counter++;
+
+            repackIfAllDigits(result, 0);
+
+            if ((requiredEncoder < 0) || (requiredEncoder == i)) {
+                const enum Territory ccodeFinal = (ccode_override != TERRITORY_NONE ? ccode_override : ccode);
+                if (*result && enc->mapcodes && (enc->mapcodes->count < MAX_NR_OF_MAPCODE_RESULTS)) {
+                    char* s = enc->mapcodes->mapcode[enc->mapcodes->count++];
+                    if (ccodeFinal == TERRITORY_AAA) {
+                        // AAA is never shown with territory
+                        strcpy(s, result);
+                    }
+                    else {
+                        getTerritoryIsoName(s, ccodeFinal, 0);
+                        strcat(s, " ");
+                        strcat(s, result);
+                    }
+                }
+                if (requiredEncoder == i) {
+                    return;
+                }
+            }
+            if (stop_with_one_result) {
+                return;
+            }
+            *result = 0; // clear for next iteration
+        }
+    }
+} // for i
+```
+
+Reasoning: identical semantics, but the compiler now has a guaranteed single load for `flags` regardless of how `IS_NAMELESS` etc. are written elsewhere, and the locally extracted bit values are SSA-friendly.
+

+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `mapcodelib/mapcoder.c` — block around lines 1521–1530 (post-A1 line numbers shift slightly; locate by content).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Locate the relevant block**
+

+char* s = enc->mapcodes->mapcode[enc->mapcodes->count++];

+    // AAA is never shown with territory

+}
+else {
+    getTerritoryIsoName(s, ccodeFinal, 0);
+    strcat(s, " ");
+    strcat(s, result);
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Replace with length-tracked memcpy**
+
+Replace the entire `if (ccodeFinal == TERRITORY_AAA) { ... } else { ... }` block with:

+if (ccodeFinal == TERRITORY_AAA) {

+    s[isoLen] = ' ';
+    memcpy(s + isoLen + 1, result, resultLen + 1);  // +1 to include NUL
+}
+```
+
+Reasoning: `strcat(s, " ")` does `strlen(s)` then writes 2 bytes; `strcat(s, result)` does another `strlen(s)` (now longer) then writes `strlen(result)+1` bytes. The replacement does one `strlen` per source string and a single byte write + memcpy. Output is byte-identical.

+**Goal:** Eliminate the per-iteration `value % 31` + `value / 31` by combining via `__builtin_*`-free C: compute quotient once, derive remainder. This is one machine division per iteration instead of two (the compiler may already do this, but it's not guaranteed without `-fno-trapping-math` etc.).
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `mapcodelib/mapcoder.c:1083`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Edit `encodeBase31`**
+
+Locate `mapcoder.c:1083`:

+```c
+static void encodeBase31(char* result, int value, int nrchars) {
+    ASSERT(result);
+    ASSERT(nrchars >= 0);
+    result[nrchars] = 0; // zero-terminate!
+    while (nrchars > 0) {
+        nrchars--;
+        result[nrchars] = ENCODE_CHARS[value % 31];
+        value /= 31;

+        nrchars--;
+        result[nrchars] = ENCODE_CHARS[r];
+        value = q;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Reasoning: For `int` with `value >= 0` (precondition by inspection — callers always pass non-negative computed offsets), `r = value - q*31` is equivalent to `value % 31` but uses one IDIV/MUL+SUB pair rather than potentially two division-class operations. Modern compilers often emit `imul` magic constants for division by 31 and do this optimization themselves; we make it explicit so it survives older toolchains and `-O3` -> `-O2` regressions.

+## Task 6: A5 — Tighten `repackIfAllDigits` early-exit
+
+**Goal:** The current implementation walks the string twice in many cases. We add a tightened first-pass that bails sooner.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `mapcodelib/mapcoder.c:892`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Read the current implementation in full**
+
+The function spans `mapcoder.c:892–930` (approx). Read it carefully — it already has an `alldigits` flag flipped to 0 on first non-digit, but it still continues the scan looking for `'.'`. Let's tighten it.
+
+Look at the current code:
+
+```c
+static void repackIfAllDigits(char* input, const int aonly) {
+    char* s = input;
+    int alldigits = 1; // assume all digits
+    char* e;
+    char* dotpos = NULL;
+    ASSERT(input);
+    for (e = s; *e != 0 && *e != '-'; e++) {
+        if (*e < '0' || *e > '9') {
+            ...
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Read the rest of the function first**
+
+```bash
+sed -n '892,935p' /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/mapcodelib/mapcoder.c
+```
+
+The implementing engineer MUST read the full function before editing it. The optimization opportunity is to short-circuit when `alldigits` becomes 0 AND `dotpos` is already set — at that point we know the full structure and don't need to scan further within this loop.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Apply minimal early-exit**
+
+In the loop body, after `alldigits = 0;` is set inside the `if (*e < '0' || *e > '9')` branch, the function already has a `break` for the case `*e != '.'`. If `*e == '.'`, the loop continues, but once `alldigits` is 0 there's no more work the loop accomplishes other than setting `dotpos`.
+
+The cleanest tightening: after the existing `if (*e == '.')` block that assigns `dotpos`, if `alldigits` is already 0 and `dotpos` is non-null, `break`.
+
+Locate the existing `else if (*e == '.')` clause (it should look like):
+
+```c
+else if (*e == '.') {
+    dotpos = e;
+}
+```
+
+Modify the surrounding `for` loop body so that after `dotpos = e;` we check both conditions and break when no useful work remains. Replace the entire `for` loop with:
+

+- [ ] **Step 4: Read the function again to confirm semantics**
+
+Before committing, the implementer MUST diff the file against `git HEAD` and ensure the only changes are:
+1. Optional `break`s added in well-understood control-flow locations.
+2. No other behavioral change.
+
+If the diff shows anything else changed (variable names, condition rewrites, etc.), revert.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Build and run tests**
+
+Same as Task 2 Step 5. Bit-exactness is essential here — if any single test fails, revert immediately.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Measure timing (3× best)**
+
+Same as Task 2 Step 6.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit (or skip if no measurable gain)**
+
+If the timing delta vs. previous commit is below noise threshold (< 0.5%) and the diff is non-trivial, prefer NOT to commit (skipping A5 is acceptable per the spec). Otherwise:
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp

+## Task 7: B1+B2+B3 — Define and initialize companion tables (not yet used)
+
+**Goal:** Add companion static tables, a one-time initializer, and call sites that invoke the initializer at every public entry point. The hot loops still use macros at this point — this task is verified by tests-still-pass + the initializer running without crashing.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `mapcodelib/mapcoder.c` — add static-scope tables and `initCompanionTables()` near the top of the file (after macros, before any hot function).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add static companion tables and initializer**
+
+Open `mapcodelib/mapcoder.c`. Find the line right after the flag-extraction macro definitions (after `mapcoder.c:154` `#define HEADER_LETTER(m) ...`). Add the following block:
+
+```c
+///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
+//
+//  PRECOMPUTED COMPANION TABLES (perf: feat/optimize, see docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-28-mapcodelib-optimize-design.md)

+//  in hot encode/decode loops to avoid repeated bit-masking on the same record.

+
+static void initCompanionTables(void) {
+    int m;

+    for (m = 0; m <= MAPCODE_BOUNDARY_MAX; m++) {
+        const int flags = TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES[m].flags;

+        if (flags & 1024) kind |= KIND_BIT_SPECIAL_SHAPE;
+        RECORD_CODEX[m] = (unsigned char) codex_val;
+        RECORD_REC_TYPE[m] = (unsigned char) rec_type;

+        RECORD_SMART_DIV[m] = (unsigned short) ((unsigned int) flags >> 16);
+    }
+    for (t = 0; t < TERRITORY_TABLE_SIZE; t++) {
+        TERRITORY_FIRST_NAMELESS[t] = -1;
+        TERRITORY_NAMELESS_COUNT[t] = 0;
+    }
+    for (t = 0; t < TERRITORY_TABLE_SIZE - 1; t++) {
+        const int from = DATA_START[t];
+        const int upto_excl = DATA_START[t + 1];
+        int i;
+        int first = -1;
+        int count = 0;
+        for (i = from; i < upto_excl; i++) {
+            if (RECORD_KIND[i] & KIND_BIT_NAMELESS) {
+                if (first < 0) {
+                    first = i;
+                }
+                count++;
+            }
+        }
+        TERRITORY_FIRST_NAMELESS[t] = first;
+        TERRITORY_NAMELESS_COUNT[t] = count;
+    }
+    companion_initialized = 1;
+}
+```
+
+Placement: insert this block immediately after the `HEADER_LETTER` macro (line 154) and BEFORE any function definitions. It depends only on `TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES` and `ENCODE_CHARS` (defined further down) — so be careful: `ENCODE_CHARS` is defined at `mapcoder.c:332`. The initializer references it. Since `initCompanionTables` is a function (not a static initializer), it's evaluated at call time, after `ENCODE_CHARS` is fully visible in the translation unit. C99 allows a function to reference any file-scope identifier as long as the identifier is declared before the function's first call. We must therefore either:
+  - Insert this block AFTER `ENCODE_CHARS` (i.e. after line 332). RECOMMENDED.
+  - Or insert a forward declaration of `ENCODE_CHARS` earlier in the file.
+
+Use the RECOMMENDED option: place the entire companion-tables block immediately AFTER the `ENCODE_CHARS` definition (around line 332+, before `decodeChar` at line 352).
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Call `initCompanionTables()` from public entry points**
+
+The public encode/decode entry points are:
+- `encodeLatLonToMapcodes_internal` (`mapcoder.c:1549`)
+- `decoderEngine` (`mapcoder.c:2651`)
+
+At the very top of `encodeLatLonToMapcodes_internal` (after the `ASSERT(mapcodes);` etc., before `convertCoordsToMicrosAndFractions`), add:
+
+```c
+initCompanionTables();
+```
+
+At the very top of `decoderEngine` (after `ASSERT(dec);`, before `parseMapcodeString`), add:
+
+```c
+initCompanionTables();
+```
+
+Both calls are guarded by the cheap `if (companion_initialized) return;` so the call cost is one branch per call after the first.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Build and run tests**
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/mapcodelib && gcc -O3 -c mapcoder.c
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/test && gcc -O3 unittest.c -lm -lpthread -o unittest ../mapcodelib/mapcoder.o && ./unittest 2>&1 | tail -5
+```
+
+Expected: clean compile (no unused-variable warnings on the new tables — they ARE used by the initializer), `Unit tests passed`. If anything fails, revert.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Measure timing (3× best)**
+
+Same as Task 2 Step 6. The expected delta vs. previous commit is tiny (near zero or slightly negative due to init cost on first call). That's expected; B4 is where the payoff lands.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp
+git add mapcodelib/mapcoder.c
+git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
+perf: B1+B2+B3 — add precomputed companion tables and one-time init

+

+
+## Task 8: B4 — Hot loops read from companion tables
+
+**Goal:** The payoff commit. Switch the inner-loop reads in `encoderEngine`, `decoderEngine`, `firstNamelessRecord`, `countNamelessRecords` from the local `flags` cache (added in A1) to the precomputed companion tables.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `mapcodelib/mapcoder.c` — same loop bodies edited in Task 2 (A1), plus the two nameless helpers.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Replace `encoderEngine` loop body to use companion tables**
+
+Locate the loop edited in Task 2 (the `for (i = from; i <= upto; i++)` in `encoderEngine`). Replace the local `flags`-based extractions with direct table reads:
+
+```c

+perf: B4 — hot loops read from precomputed companion tables
+
+Replace per-iteration mask/shift extractions in encoderEngine,
+decoderEngine, firstNamelessRecord, countNamelessRecords with direct
+reads from RECORD_KIND / RECORD_CODEX / RECORD_REC_TYPE /
+RECORD_HEADER_LETTER. The companion tables are byte-sized so each
+field is a single byte load with friendlier cache behavior than the
+4-byte flags field.
+
+Values are derived from the same macros they replace (see B3 init);

+## Task 9: B5 — Debug-build sanity check
+
+**Goal:** In `#ifdef DEBUG` builds only, have `initCompanionTables` assert that every precomputed value matches the macro-derived value. Free correctness guarantee during development.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `mapcodelib/mapcoder.c` — the `initCompanionTables` function.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add the debug check at the end of `initCompanionTables`**
+
+Just before `companion_initialized = 1;` (the last line of `initCompanionTables`), add:
+
+```c
+#ifdef DEBUG
+    for (m = 0; m <= MAPCODE_BOUNDARY_MAX; m++) {
+        const int flags = TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES[m].flags;
+        const int c = flags & 31;
+        const int codex_val = 10 * (c / 5) + ((c % 5) + 1);
+        ASSERT(RECORD_CODEX[m] == (unsigned char) codex_val);
+        ASSERT(RECORD_REC_TYPE[m] == (unsigned char) ((flags >> 7) & 3));
+        ASSERT(((RECORD_KIND[m] & KIND_BIT_NAMELESS) != 0) == ((flags & 64) != 0));
+        ASSERT(((RECORD_KIND[m] & KIND_BIT_RESTRICTED) != 0) == ((flags & 512) != 0));
+        ASSERT(((RECORD_KIND[m] & KIND_BIT_SPECIAL_SHAPE) != 0) == ((flags & 1024) != 0));
+        ASSERT(RECORD_HEADER_LETTER[m] == (unsigned char) ENCODE_CHARS[(flags >> 11) & 31]);
+        ASSERT(RECORD_SMART_DIV[m] == (unsigned short) ((unsigned int) flags >> 16));
+    }
+#endif
+```
+
+(`m` is already declared at the top of `initCompanionTables`, so no new declarations needed.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Build and run tests in BOTH O3 and DEBUG modes**
+
+```bash
+# -O3 release (no debug assertions)
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/mapcodelib && gcc -O3 -c mapcoder.c
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/test && gcc -O3 unittest.c -lm -lpthread -o unittest ../mapcodelib/mapcoder.o && ./unittest 2>&1 | tail -5
+
+# DEBUG build (with assertions)
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/mapcodelib && gcc -O0 -DDEBUG -c mapcoder.c
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/test && gcc -O0 -DDEBUG unittest.c -lm -lpthread -o unittest ../mapcodelib/mapcoder.o && ./unittest 2>&1 | tail -5
+```
+
+Both must report `Unit tests passed`. The DEBUG run additionally exercises the new `ASSERT` block in `initCompanionTables` — if any precomputed value diverges from the macro-derived one, the DEBUG build aborts (which is exactly what we want).
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Re-build -O3 (so the binary in test/ is the release one for timing)**
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/mapcodelib && gcc -O3 -c mapcoder.c
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp/test && gcc -O3 unittest.c -lm -lpthread -o unittest ../mapcodelib/mapcoder.o
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Measure timing (3× best)**
+
+Same as Task 2 Step 6. Expected: delta from previous commit is near zero (the new code is `#ifdef DEBUG` gated and absent in -O3).
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/rijn/source/mapcode-foundation/mapcode-cpp
+git add mapcodelib/mapcoder.c
+git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'

+- Modify: `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-28-mapcodelib-optimize-design.md` — append a results section.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Append a results section to the spec**
+

+## Self-review
+
+Spec coverage check:
+- §1 scope/goals → covered by all tasks; bit-exact guardrail enforced by Step "run tests" in every task.
+- §2 measurement methodology → Task 1 establishes baseline; every subsequent task records timing.
+- §3 Approach A (A1–A5) → Tasks 2–6.
+- §4 Approach B (B1–B5) → Tasks 7–9.
+- §4 "Interaction with A1" → Task 8 Step 1 explicitly removes the A1 local `flags` cache when switching to companion tables.
+- §5 workflow → matches Tasks 1–9.
+- §6 risks → mitigated by "test after every step + revert on failure" in each task; debug-build assertion in Task 9.
+- §7 success criteria → Task 10 verifies binary size and produces the final results table.
+
+Placeholder scan: `<FILL_IN>` markers are intentional — they're per-run measurements the implementer fills in at commit time. No `TBD`/`TODO`/"implement later" anywhere.
+
+Type consistency: `unsigned char` used uniformly for KIND/CODEX/REC_TYPE/HEADER_LETTER; `unsigned short` for SMART_DIV; `int` for TERRITORY_FIRST_NAMELESS/COUNT (matches existing code conventions for record indices). Names `KIND_BIT_NAMELESS` / `KIND_BIT_RESTRICTED` / `KIND_BIT_SPECIAL_SHAPE` used consistently across Tasks 7 and 8.

In encoderEngine and decoderEngine inner loops, read
TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES[i].flags once per iteration into a const local and
extract bit fields from it, instead of using flag-extraction macros that
each re-dereference the same memory. Same change in firstNamelessRecord
and countNamelessRecords.

Bit-exact: macros stay defined and used in cold paths; only the inner
loop body call sites were rewritten to local reads.

    baseline (T0) = 114.13s
    after A1 (T2) = 111.78s

Most territory rectangles are narrower in longitude than in latitude
relative to their bounding ranges, so testing longitude first short-
circuits faster on the typical reject case.

  time ./unittest (best of 3, user):
    baseline = 114.13s
    after A2  = 121.10s
    delta     = -6.11% cumulative (regression vs baseline)

Note: result is slower than A1 (T2=112.21s); the lon-first ordering
did not yield a speedup on this benchmark — likely because isInRange
carries more overhead than the simple comparison it replaces.

Reverts b9b3f2c. isInRange() wraps longitude and has higher overhead
than simple comparisons; testing it first regressed user time by ~7.9s
vs A1 baseline. Reverting to lat-first ordering.

strcpy + strcat + strcat each re-scans the destination from the start
to find the null terminator. Replace with explicit strlen on each
source plus a single memcpy to copy result (including NUL).

Output bytes are unchanged.

Static tables RECORD_CODEX / RECORD_REC_TYPE / RECORD_KIND /
RECORD_HEADER_LETTER / RECORD_SMART_DIV precomputed once from
TERRITORY_BOUNDARIES.flags. Per-territory TERRITORY_FIRST_NAMELESS /
TERRITORY_NAMELESS_COUNT replace linear nameless scans later.

This commit only defines the tables and calls initCompanionTables at
the top of encodeLatLonToMapcodes_internal and decoderEngine. Hot loops
still use the existing macros; the switch happens in B4.

Memory footprint: ~74 KB of additional static data (.bss).

Replace per-iteration mask/shift extractions in encoderEngine,
decoderEngine, firstNamelessRecord, countNamelessRecords with direct
reads from RECORD_KIND / RECORD_CODEX / RECORD_REC_TYPE /
RECORD_HEADER_LETTER. The companion tables are byte-sized so each
field is a single byte load with friendlier cache behavior than
re-deriving from the 4-byte flags field each iteration.

Inner j-loops in decoderEngine also switch to RECORD_KIND[j] &
KIND_BIT_RESTRICTED instead of the IS_RESTRICTED(j) macro.

Values are derived from the same macros they replace (see B3 init);
output is bit-exact.

Under -DDEBUG, initCompanionTables asserts that every precomputed value
matches the macro-derived one. Free correctness guard during development;
zero cost in release.

Verified: both -O3 and -O0 -DDEBUG builds pass the unit suite.

  time ./unittest -O3 (best of 3, user):
    baseline = 114.13s
    after B5 = 99.73s
    delta    = -12.6% cumulative

Subject: [PATCH 29/31] docs: record final perf results for feat/optimize
 branch

Appends results table to design spec. Final speedup: ~12.6% on
`time ./unittest` at -O3. Target was 20-50%; achieved 12.6%.
Primary driver: B4 companion-table hot-loop reads. A2 reverted
(regression), A4/A5 no-ops at -O3. Binary size delta: +2240 bytes.

+**Success criteria check:**
+- ✅ All unit tests passing after every commit
+- ✅ Binary size growth ≤ 100 KB
+- ⚠️  ≥20% wall-time reduction — NOT achieved (12.6% achieved)
+- ❌ ≥30% stretch target — not achieved
+
+**Notes:**
+- A2 (longitude-first boundary check) caused a regression because `isInRange()` has
+  non-trivial overhead (handles longitude wrap-around) and displaced a cheaper
+  lat-min comparison to second position.
+- A4 (encodeBase31) showed no gain at -O3 because the compiler already performs
+  strength reduction on division by 31.
+- A5 was already implemented in the codebase (unconditional break in else branch).
+- The 12.6% improvement comes primarily from B4: replacing per-iteration mask/shift
+  operations on a 4-byte flags field with single byte loads from the precomputed
+  companion tables.
+- Further gains would require Approach C (loop restructuring) or SIMD, which were
+  out of scope for this branch.

+
+## Notes
+
+- **A2 reverted:** `isInRange()` checks for longitude wrap-around — its overhead exceeded the saving from the early-out it enabled.
+- **A4 no-op:** GCC `-O3` already performs strength reduction on `/31` + `%31`, so the explicit version gave no new information to the compiler.
+- **A5 no-op:** The early-exit was already present in the codebase.
+- **Primary driver:** B4 — replacing per-iteration mask/shift operations on a 4-byte `flags` field with single byte loads from precomputed byte-sized companion tables (`RECORD_KIND`, `RECORD_CODEX`, `RECORD_REC_TYPE`, `RECORD_HEADER_LETTER`).
+- **Why short of 20–50% target:** The test suite includes correctness overhead (asserts, sprintf, comparisons) that dilutes the encode/decode speedup. Approach C (loop restructuring) would be the next lever.
