Two additions that close out the reviewer-prep work cleanly:
1. doc/reviewer/hub.html + publish-workflow integration
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Move the hand-curated reviewer hub from the codeberg `pages`
branch (where it lived as an opaque snapshot) into the repo as
`doc/reviewer/hub.html`. `.gitea/workflows/doxygen-pages.yml`
gains a conditional `if [ -f doc/reviewer/hub.html ]; then …`
step that installs it as the publish `index.html` and demotes
the auto-generated Doxygen index to `/doxygen.html`.
Effect: merging any of the open PRs into main will trigger the
workflow, which republishes BOTH the Doxygen + the reviewer hub
together. The reviewer URL stays live across merges with zero
manual intervention.
Source-controlled benefits:
* hub edits go through normal PRs, not orphan-branch
force-pushes
* old hub versions live in git history
* the in-repo links now target `branch/main/…` instead of the
transient `preview/reviewer-snapshot-vN/…` paths
2. .gitea/workflows/perf-compile-time.yml — Linux CI bench
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
New workflow runs on every push to main that touches the build
system or public headers. Five-step matrix measures and reports:
Run 1 cold baseline (no PCH, no Unity, no ccache)
Run 2 + PCH only
Run 3 + PCH + Unity (current default)
Run 4 + FAST_TEST_BUILD=ON (-O0 -g — Linux's expected ~40 % win)
Run 5 + ccache warm rerun (expected ≥ 90 % cache hit)
Validates the Apple-M1 predictions in doc/architecture/compile-time.md
against the Linux + g++ runner where Backend dominates more and
the Apple-clang+PCH friction that defeats ccache locally does not
apply. Job is data-collection only; never blocks a merge.
doc updates:
* doc/architecture/compile-time.md — new "Cross-platform perf bench"
section linking to the workflow + the table of macOS-vs-Linux
expected deltas.
* doc/reviewer/README.md — new "Hub-Page durability" subsection
explaining how the hub survives merges.

Reviewer meeting materials
A single landing page for the three documents associated with an external-reviewer meeting. The materials are written for a peer who actively publishes in discrete differential geometry — specifically the decorated-DCE / Penner-coordinates / hyperideal-polyhedra / canonical-tessellations research line — and who would potentially use conformallab++ as numerical infrastructure for their own future experiments.
| Document | Audience | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
briefing.md |
the reviewer | one-page orientation: what the project is, where to look first, what we want from them |
questions.md |
the reviewer | the 5 concrete decisions we want their opinion on (skim before the meeting) |
agenda.md |
me | my own meeting playbook: timing, order, the "no" question, post-meeting memo template |
After the meeting, a fourth file 2026-XX-XX-meeting-notes.md should
land here too — the memo template at the bottom of agenda.md is the
suggested structure.
When to send to the reviewer
- briefing.md + questions.md: as part of the meeting-confirmation email, ~5 business days before the meeting. Subject line: "Pre-read for our conformallab++ chat (~15 min)".
- agenda.md: never send. This is internal scaffolding.
Hub-Page durability
The reviewer hub HTML at https://tmoussa.codeberg.page/ConformalLabpp/
is published from doc/reviewer/hub.html in the repo (not from a
detached preview branch). This means:
- Merging any of the open PRs into
maintriggers.gitea/workflows/doxygen-pages.ymlwhich republishes the hub alongside fresh Doxygen HTML — the reviewer URL stays live across merges with no manual intervention. - The hub is source-controlled, so changes are reviewable via PR like any other doc, and old versions live in git history.
- The original Doxygen index moves to
/doxygen.htmlwhenever the hub override is active; both are reachable from the hub itself.
Quick links the reviewer should bookmark
- 🌐 Reviewer-hub landing page: https://tmoussa.codeberg.page/ConformalLabpp/ (the hub shows status badges, a "what's new" banner with the most recent delta, the research-alignment table, and direct links into every document below)
- 📦 Source: https://codeberg.org/TMoussa/ConformalLabpp
- 📝 Architecture decisions (incl. the Q7 "no" prompt):
