💡 What: Extract regex compilations into package-level variables in internal/tools/exec/bash.go for the normalizeCommand function.
🎯 Why: To eliminate repetitive dynamic regex recompilations on every invocation of normalizeCommand, which was a major CPU overhead.
📊 Measured Improvement: We built a benchmark to evaluate the time cost. The time taken dropped from 7303 ns/op (baseline) to 3588 ns/op (optimized). This is an improvement of over 50%.

Summary by cubic

Precompiles the regexes used by normalizeCommand in internal/tools/exec to avoid per-call compilation and cut CPU time. Previously we compiled two patterns on every call; now we reuse package-level regexp instances. Behavior is unchanged.

  • Moves the comment-removal and whitespace-collapsing patterns to package-level vars (removeCommentsRegex, collapseSpaceRegex).
  • Benchmark: 7303 ns/op → 3588 ns/op (~51% faster).
  • Thread-safety: shared regexp instances are safe for concurrent reads.
  • No migration required; outputs of normalizeCommand are unchanged.

Written for commit 7b344a5. Summary will update on new commits.
