+    # Compiler for transforming XPath AST into executable Ruby code.
+    #
+    # This class takes an XPath AST (produced by Parser) and compiles it into
+    # a Ruby Proc that can be executed against XML documents. The compilation
+    # process:
+    #
+    # 1. Traverse the XPath AST
+    # 2. Generate Ruby::Node AST representing Ruby code
+    # 3. Use Ruby::Generator to convert to Ruby source string
+    # 4. Evaluate source in Context to get a Proc
+    #
+    # @example
+    #   ast = Parser.parse("//book")
+    #   proc = Compiler.compile_with_cache(ast)
+    #   result = proc.call(document)
