@copilot external/pytesseract/tests と external/tesserocr/tests の全てのテストと同じものが私たちのコードベースのテストに含まれているかを再点検してください。テストもれのあるimplementは良くないですよね |

@copilot 今回追加されたjustfileの各コマンドを実行して、エラーや指摘がゼロ件であることあることを確認して、benchmarkの対象が十分に現実的なものであることを検査してください |

@copilot 今回のAPIですが、 external/tesserocr と完全な互換性を持っておいて欲しいです。 import 文を入れ替えるだけ済むようにできますか？その上で、benchmark比較の対tesserocrとの結果も出せるようにしてください（pytesseractは早くなるのは当たり前であり、tesserocrとの比較の方がより大事です） |

@copilot 今回のコードベースはnanobindによるtesseract への bindingであり、subprocessは一切使っていないであってますか？ |

The justfile tesseract-build command now detects whether it's running in a virtual environment. If not (e.g., in GitHub Actions CI), it uses the --system flag to allow uv pip install to work in non-venv environments. This resolves the CI failures where all jobs failed with: "error: No virtual environment found" 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Updated justfile to: 1. Install with [test] extras in tesseract-build (includes pytest, pillow) 2. Use system Python for tests in CI environments (no venv) 3. Use uv run for tests in local development (with venv) This resolves the "Failed to spawn: pytest" error in CI where pytest was not installed in the test environment. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Changes: 1. Created docs/ directory structure with: - COMPATIBILITY.md: Unified API compatibility and test coverage guide - development-history/: Archive of implementation reports 2. Moved 9 development history files to docs/development-history/: - phase1/2/3 implementation and validation reports - justfile and test verification reports - Renamed with cleaner filenames (removed CAPS, PHASE prefixes) 3. Consolidated 3 technical docs into docs/COMPATIBILITY.md: - TESSEROCR_COMPAT.md - TESSEROCR_COMPATIBILITY_AUDIT.md - TEST_COVERAGE.md 4. Root directory now contains only user-facing docs: - README.md (main documentation) - VERSION_MANAGEMENT.md (release workflow) Benefits: - Cleaner root directory for end users - Development history preserved but archived - Unified compatibility guide easier to navigate - Better information architecture 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Problem: - Benchmark script hardcoded macOS-specific tessdata path - Failed on Linux CI with "invalid tessdata path" error Solution: - Added get_tessdata_prefix() helper function to detect tessdata path - Checks TESSDATA_PREFIX environment variable first - Falls back to common system paths (Linux apt, macOS brew) - Auto-detects by looking for eng.traineddata file Paths checked: - /usr/share/tessdata (Linux apt) - /usr/share/tesseract-ocr/5/tessdata (Linux newer) - /opt/homebrew/share/tessdata (macOS brew) - /usr/local/share/tessdata (macOS brew old) This fixes the benchmark job failure in GitHub Actions CI. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Changes based on Copilot Pull Request Reviewer feedback:
1. **C++ Debug Logging** (tesseract_nanobind_ext.cpp)
- Added debug logging for skipped null words during iteration
- Uses #ifndef NDEBUG for conditional compilation
- Only outputs in debug builds, silent in release builds
- Added #include <iostream> for std::cerr support
2. **Improved Error Handling** (compat.py)
- Recognize() now raises RuntimeError on critical failures:
* When API not initialized (instead of returning False)
* When recognition fails (with error code)
- Provides clearer error messages for debugging
- Other info-retrieval methods keep graceful empty-value returns
3. **Updated Tests** (test_compat_extended.py)
- test_recognize_without_init now expects RuntimeError
- Uses pytest.raises with match pattern for validation
Test Results:
✅ All 163 tests pass (7.68s)
✅ Code quality: 0 findings from ruff and semgrep
✅ Improved error visibility for developers
This addresses the PR reviewer's minor observations while maintaining
backward compatibility for non-critical operations.

Performance improvement based on PR review feedback: **Problem:** - pixGetPixel() called for every pixel is inefficient - O(n) overhead per pixel for large images - Significant performance impact on high-resolution images **Solution:** - Use pixGetData() for direct memory access - Access raw pixel array via words-per-line (wpl) - Extract bytes from 32-bit words using bit shifts - Reduces overhead from O(n) to O(1) per pixel **Technical Details:** - Leptonica stores 8bpp images as 32-bit words - Each word contains 4 pixels (bytes) - Direct bit manipulation: (word >> (8 * (3 - byte_index))) & 0xFF - Maintains same output format for Python compatibility **Performance Impact:** - Expected 10-50x speedup for pixel copying phase - More noticeable on larger images (>1000x1000 pixels) - No change to API or test behavior Test Results: ✅ All 163 tests pass (8.21s) ✅ Code quality: 0 findings 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
