[agent] Now let me see the outer driver `parse_lines` in `language_type.rs`.
[agent] The hunk line counts were off. Recomputing and resubmitting:
[agent] Patch applied — `patch_id: 4e3da7e6bd1c`. Launching the gate+bench pipeline.
[agent] Still running. Polling again.
[agent] **Verdict: `accepted`** — ledger row written for `phase2-tokei-001`.

## Attempt summary

| | |
|---|---|
| **Run ID** | `phase2-tokei-001` |
| **Target / hotspot** | tokei — `LanguageType::parse_lines` 55.89% Ir / 62% branches / 44% branch-misses + `__memcmp_avx2_movbe` 9.37% Ir |
| **Playbook class** | 5 (algorithmic — precomputed lookup table tier) |
| **Patch** | `4e3da7e6bd1c`: 256-entry first-byte "interesting bytes" table in `SharedMatchers` (superset of all quote/comment token start+end first bytes, plus `\`), gating the five per-byte token matchers in `perform_multi_line_analysis`; `parse_context` still consulted on gated bytes so semantics are exactly preserved |
| **Verdict** | **accepted** |
| **Speedup (median)** | 1.1071× (~+10.7%) |
| **Speedup 95% CI** | **[1.0836, 1.1310]** — CI lower bound +8.4%, clear of the 2% accept threshold |

Measured on the tokei benchmark workload (`tokei --sort code corpora/tokei/input`), interleaved A/B vs pristine-rebuilt baseline, all equivalence gates green (upstream tests, golden replay, diff-fuzz, sanitizers — no FP/concurrency/unsafe surface touched, so no human-review routing triggered).

The hypothesis predicted 5–12% median; the measured +10.7% landed inside that band. Notably, this also satisfies the outstanding Phase 2 exit criterion of at least one auto-accepted win from the unattended loop. One attempt was requested; stopping here.
