-r.inauspicious.panchaka;        // boolean — Moon in last 5 nakshatras
-r.inauspicious.panchakaInfo;    // which of the five, and whether it's a dosha
-```
-
-Panchaka is not one undifferentiated affliction. The tradition names five and
-picks between them by **the weekday the spell began on** — so the type belongs
-to the spell, not the day, and two days with identical tithi, nakshatra and
-vara can carry different ones. A spell begun on a Wednesday or Thursday
-(`'samanya'`) carries no named affliction at all:
-
-```typescript
-const pk = r.inauspicious.panchakaInfo;
-if (pk.active && pk.isDosha) {
-  console.log(pk.name, '— began on vara', pk.onsetVara);  // e.g. "Mrityu Panchaka"

-
-// Do Ghati Muhurta — 15 day + 15 night ~48-min deity-keyed slots (no vara rotation)
-r.muhurtas.doGhati.day.forEach(g => console.log(g.name, g.start, g.end));
-

-fast emits a `deferralDate` for Dwadashi), Pradosha, Sankranti + regional
-variants (Pongal, Vishu, Baisakhi, Pohela Boishakh, Bihu, Uttarayan, Lohri…),
-canonical-time classical (Janmashtami, Shivaratri, Ganesh Chaturthi, Diwali,
-Holi, Raksha Bandhan — Bhadra-aware, Karva Chauth, Akshaya Tritiya…),
-regional (Gudi Padwa, Gangaur, Teej variants, Onam, Chhath…), monthly
-observances (Masik Shivaratri, Pushya days, Shravan Somvar…).
+📖 [Festivals →](https://dharmagya.app/docs/panchang-ts/festivals)
 
 ```typescript
-r.festivals.forEach(f => {
-  // key:  stable, language-independent id — 'diwali', 'makar_sankranti', …
-  // type: major | minor | ekadashi | smarta_ekadashi | vaishnava_ekadashi
-  //     | pradosha | sankranti | eclipse
-  console.log(f.key, f.name, f.type, f.deferralDate);
-});
-
-// `name` is localized, so match on `key` — never on `name`.
+r.festivals.forEach(f => console.log(f.key, f.name, f.type, f.deferralDate));
+// `name` is localized, so match on `key` — never on `name`:
 const hasDiwali = r.festivals.some(f => f.key === 'diwali');
-```
-
-`key` is on engine results (`getDailyPanchang`, `getInstantPanchang`,
-`computeFestivalsInRange`). Entries read back out of a `buildFestivalsTable` table
-carry `name` / `type` / `description` only.
-
-### Regional scoping
 
-`region` scopes regional variants to one Indian state. Pan-Indian festivals
-emit regardless.
+// Scope regional variants: 21 state slugs + 'nepal' + 'all' (default)
+getDailyPanchang(jan14, chennai, { timezone: 330, region: 'tamil-nadu' });
 
-```typescript
-// All regional variants (default):
-getDailyPanchang(jan14, chennai, { timezone: 330 })!.festivals.map(f => f.name);
-// → ["Sankranti","Makar Sankranti","Pongal","Uttarayan","Magh Bihu","Ayyappa Makara Jyothi"]
-
-// Tamil Nadu only:
-getDailyPanchang(jan14, chennai, { timezone: 330, region: 'tamil-nadu' })!
-  .festivals.map(f => f.name);
-// → ["Sankranti","Makar Sankranti","Pongal"]
-
-// Lohri fires on the Hindu day BEFORE Makara transit, in Punjab/Haryana/Himachal scope:
-getDailyPanchang(jan13, amritsar, { timezone: 330, region: 'punjab' })!
-  .festivals.some(f => f.name === 'Lohri'); // true
-```
-
-`FestivalRegion` covers 21 Indian states + `'nepal'` + `'all'` (default). The
-legacy slugs `'tamil'`, `'bengal'`, `'north-india'` are still accepted and
-mapped internally.
-
-### Pre-computed table — build your own and cache it
-
-If you want festival *dates* without running the engine in your app, compute a
-table once with `buildFestivalsTable`, cache the JSON, and read it back through
-the engine-free `panchang-ts/festivals` entry point.
-
-**The library ships no pre-computed table.** Festival dates are
-observer-dependent — canonical times (nishita / pradosha / chandrodaya …) shift
-with the timezone offset, so a table built for one place can be ±1 day wrong
-elsewhere — and any table baked into the package would also go stale. Building
-your own means it is correct for *your* users and covers whatever years you
-want.
-
-```typescript
-import { buildFestivalsTable } from 'panchang-ts';            // uses the engine
-import {
-  readFestivalsForYear,
-  readFestivalsForDate,
-  readFestivalsYearRange,
-} from 'panchang-ts/festivals';                                // engine-free
-
-// Build once — at your build time, or on first launch in the background.
-const table = buildFestivalsTable({
-  location: { latitude: 25.3176, longitude: 82.9739 },   // Varanasi
-  timezoneOffsetMinutes: 330,    // IST; -300 = US Eastern, 0 = UK
-  startYear: 2024,
-  endYear: 2031,
-  languages: ['en', 'hi'],       // drop 'hi' to halve the size
-  referenceLocation: 'Varanasi',
-});
-// …persist `table` as JSON (disk / MMKV / your bundler's asset pipeline).
-
-// Later reads are instant lookups — no engine, no ephemeris.
-readFestivalsYearRange(table);                    // { start: 2024, end: 2031 }
-readFestivalsForYear(table, 2026)!.length;        // ~150 festival days
-const diwali = readFestivalsForYear(table, 2026)!
-  .find(d => d.festivals.some(f => f.name === 'Diwali'))!.date;
-readFestivalsForDate(table, diwali);              // [Narak Chaturdashi, Diwali]
-readFestivalsForDate(table, diwali, 'hi');        // [नरक चतुर्दशी, दिवाली]
+// Pre-computed table: build once, cache the JSON, read engine-free.
+import { buildFestivalsTable } from 'panchang-ts';
+import { readFestivalsForYear, readFestivalsForDate } from 'panchang-ts/festivals';
 ```
 
-`panchang-ts/festivals` imports no astronomy code, so a client bundle that only
-*reads* a table never pulls in the engine. Keep `buildFestivalsTable` on the
-build/server side (or behind a one-time on-device warm-up) and ship only the
-JSON.
-
-Eclipses are excluded here — visibility is location-dependent, so they get their
-own table at `panchang-ts/eclipses` (see [Eclipses](#eclipses)).
+No table ships with the package — festival dates are observer-dependent, so you
+build one for your users' location and years (`npm run festivals:gen` is a
+worked example).
 
-`npm run festivals:gen` is a worked example of the whole pattern; it writes a
-rolling 2-past / 5-future window to `./festivals.json` (or a path you pass).

-  // Sutak: 12 h (4 prahara) before solar, 9 h (3 prahara) before lunar
 }
 
-import { getUpcomingSolarEclipse, getUpcomingLunarEclipse } from 'panchang-ts';
-const next = getUpcomingSolarEclipse(new Date(), loc, 365 /* days */);
-```
-
-### Pre-computed table — build your own and cache it
+import { getUpcomingSolarEclipse, computeMoonPhasesInRange } from 'panchang-ts';
+getUpcomingSolarEclipse(new Date(), loc, 365);
+computeMoonPhasesInRange(start, end);      // precise new/quarter/full instants
 
-Same pattern as festivals: build a table with `buildEclipsesTable`, cache it,
-read it back through the engine-free `panchang-ts/eclipses` entry point.
-
-**No table is bundled.** Which eclipses are visible — and therefore which carry
-`sutak` — is location-dependent, so a table is only meaningful for the place it
-was built for.
-
-```typescript
-import { buildEclipsesTable } from 'panchang-ts';            // uses the engine
-import {
-  readEclipsesForYear,
-  readEclipsesForDate,
-  readEclipsesYearRange,
-} from 'panchang-ts/eclipses';                                // engine-free
-
-const table = buildEclipsesTable({
-  location: { latitude: 25.3176, longitude: 82.9739 },   // Varanasi
-  timezoneOffsetMinutes: 330,
-  startYear: 2024,
-  endYear: 2031,
-  languages: ['en', 'hi'],
-  // visibleOnly: false → also include eclipses below the horizon (no sutak)
-});
-// …persist `table` as JSON, then:
-
-readEclipsesYearRange(table);            // { start: 2024, end: 2031 }
-const e = readEclipsesForYear(table, 2025)![0].eclipses[0];
-e.kind;                 // 'lunar'
-e.subtype;              // 'total'
-e.start; e.peak; e.end; // ISO UTC strings
-e.obscuration;          // 0..1 disc area covered at peak
-e.magnitude;            // catalogue magnitude (diameter); >1 total, <0 penumbral
-e.visibleFromLocation;  // visible during any phase?
-e.visibleAtPeak;        // is greatest eclipse itself above the horizon?
-e.sutak;                // { start, end } — see note below
-readEclipsesForDate(table, '2025-09-07', 'hi');  // [पूर्ण चंद्र ग्रहण]
+// Engine-free tables: panchang-ts/eclipses and panchang-ts/moon-phases
 ```
 
-By default a table lists every eclipse **visible from the location during any
-phase** (so one already in progress at moon/sunrise or moon/sunset is included);
-`visibleAtPeak` tells you whether greatest eclipse itself is observable.
-
-Solar eclipses report the subtype seen **locally** (a globally-total eclipse may
-read `partial` from a given place). The `sutak` window is present only where it
-applies — all visible solar eclipses and visible **umbral** (partial/total)
-lunar eclipses; **penumbral** lunar eclipses carry no `sutak` and are not
-religiously observed (drik / pandit consensus).
-
-For one-off astronomical detail without building a table, use
-`getUpcomingEclipses` / `computeEclipsesInRange` from the main entry.
-
-`npm run eclipses:gen` is a worked example; it writes a rolling 2-past /
-5-future window to `./eclipses.json` (or a path you pass).
-
-## Moon Phases
+## Muhurta Engine
 
-The four principal lunar phases — **new** (Amavasya), **first quarter**,
-**full** (Purnima), **last quarter** — as precise instants. (These are the
-astronomical quarter moments, distinct from the same-named *tithis*, which are
-~24h windows.)
+📖 [Muhurta Engine →](https://dharmagya.app/docs/panchang-ts/muhurta)

-import { computeMoonPhasesInRange } from 'panchang-ts';
-const phases = computeMoonPhasesInRange(new Date('2026-01-01'), new Date('2026-12-31'));
-phases.forEach(p => console.log(p.phase, p.time.toISOString()));  // ~49 / year
-```
-
-### Pre-computed table — build your own and cache it
-
-Same pattern again, at `panchang-ts/moon-phases`. Phases are **global instants**,
-so `buildMoonPhasesTable` takes only a `timezoneOffsetMinutes` (no coordinates)
-— the timezone just decides which calendar date each instant lands on (a new
-moon at 19:52 UTC on Jan 18 is listed under Jan 19 in IST).

-Each entry carries `phase`, the phase `time` (ISO UTC), and `en` + `hi` text.

-**Tithi and vara are scored jointly, not just per-anga.** The classical Vara ×
-Tithi yogas — Siddha, Amrita, Dagdha, Visha, Hutasana, Krakacha, Samvartaka —
-are applied to every rule, so a Rikta tithi landing on a Saturday is partly
-redeemed by Siddha yoga rather than flatly penalised. Set
-`varaTithiYogas: false` for the older per-anga-only scoring, or call
-`computeVaraTithiYogas(vara, tithi)` directly. Where an auspicious and an
-inauspicious yoga both fire — a documented ambiguity in the sources — both are
-surfaced as separate factors and allowed to net out.
-
-`bhadra` defaults to `'ignore'`; the stock rules use `'penalize'`. A whole-day
-`'exclude'` is rarely what you want: Vishti karana sits at fixed positions in
-the tithi cycle, so vetoing the day removes seven tithis outright — among them
-Shukla Ekadashi, which the same sources list as *preferred* for vivah. Read
-`panchang.inauspicious.bhadra` for the window and schedule around it.
-`excludeBhadra: true` still works as an alias for `bhadra: 'exclude'`.
-
-13 stock rules: vivah, griha pravesh, namakarana, vidyarambh, vahan kharidi,
-annaprashan, mundan, upanayanam, karnavedha, aksharabhyasam, seemantham, shop
-opening, travel start.
-
-### Pre-computed table — build your own and cache it
-
-Scoring a year of days runs the engine ~365 times. If your app asks the same
-question repeatedly, compute the answer once and ship the JSON — the same
-pattern the festival, eclipse and Moon-phase tables use.

-`includeFailures: true` to keep every day with its score. Scores are location-
-*and* rule-dependent, so a table built for Varanasi and `vivah` says nothing
-about another place or occasion.
-
-`npm run muhurta:gen` is a worked example script
-([scripts/generate-muhurta-json.ts](scripts/generate-muhurta-json.ts)):
-
-```bash
-npm run muhurta:gen -- muhurta-vivah.json vivah
-```
-
-Scoring: starts at 50; +10 per matching auspicious axis (tithi / nakshatra /
-vara / yoga), -15 per inauspicious axis, hard exclusions zero the score.
-Special yogas (Amrit Siddhi, Sarvartha Siddhi, Ravi/Guru Pushya) add +5;
-Jwalamukhi subtracts -10. Clamped 0..100; `passes: true` when score ≥ 50.
-
-Every scoring input appears in both `reasons` (English prose, diagnostic, not a
-stable format) and `factors` (structured, with a stable `code`). Localize and
-filter on `factors`.
-
-`scoreMuhurta` computes only the sections it actually scores against, so it is
-cheaper than a full `getDailyPanchang`. `computeAuspiciousDatesInRange` does not narrow —
-each returned day carries its complete `panchang` for callers to drill into.

-use the **solar** (Mesha Sankranti) anchor; elsewhere uses **Chaitra Shukla
-Pratipada** (Ugadi / Gudi Padwa / Cheti Chand). When Pratipada is a kshaya
-tithi (e.g. Ugadi 2026), falls back to the Amanta-Chaitra-masa boundary.

-**Timezone.** Number (minutes from UTC, e.g. `330` for IST) or an IANA zone

-### Localized vs machine-readable fields
-
-Every user-facing string follows `language`. Where a value is also meaningful to
-code, the two are separate fields — the stable key never changes with language:
-
-| Machine-readable | Localized display |
-|---|---|
-| `festival.key` (`'diwali'`) | `festival.name` (`"दिवाली"`) |
-| `bhadra.location` (`'paatal'`) | `bhadra.locationName` (`"पाताल"`) |
-| `eclipse.kind` / `eclipse.subtype` | `eclipse.description` |
-| `muhurtaScore.factors[].code` | `muhurtaScore.reasons` (English only) |
-
-`MuhurtaScore.reasons` is diagnostic English and not a stable format; use
-`factors` for anything shown to a user or branched on in code.

-Everything else — Holi, Ugadi (non-Kshaya years), Rama Navami, Raksha Bandhan,
-Ganesh Chaturthi (normal years), Navaratri, Dussehra, Karva Chauth, Hanuman
-Jayanti — matches the canonical date across 2025 and 2026 fixtures.

-Two columns, because they differ and both are real. **Distinct days** is the
-calendar-scan cost: every call misses the solar rise/set cache. **Same day
-repeated** is what a UI that re-renders one date sees, and what `npm run bench`

+days** is the calendar-scan cost; **same day repeated** is what a UI

+this release.
 
 | `getDailyPanchang` call | Distinct days | Same day repeated | 4.3.1 (distinct) |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | Default (all sections + end-times) | **~0.41 ms** | **~0.17 ms** | ~6.06 ms |
-| `computeEndTimes: false` | ~0.39 ms | ~0.15 ms | ~5.63 ms |
-| Without `'festivals'` | ~0.39 ms | — | n/a |
-| `sections: ['festivals', 'eclipse']` | ~0.40 ms | — | n/a |
-| `sections: []` | ~0.27 ms | — | n/a |
 | `sections: []` + `computeEndTimes: false` | ~0.25 ms | ~0.14 ms | n/a |
 | `getInstantPanchang` | ~0.21 ms | ~0.10 ms | ~0.43 ms |
 
-`sections` did not exist before v5, so the rows using it have no 4.3.1
-counterpart — passing it to 4.3.1 is silently ignored and you get a full run.
-
-**A default day is ~15× cheaper than in 4.3.1**, and a repeated day ~37×. Most
-of that is not tuning: 4.3.1 ran `astronomy-engine`'s full lunar theory inside
-the eclipse search on every day containing a syzygy, and had no cache that
-survived a call.
-
-One surface moved the other way, and it is deliberate: the **raw longitude
-getters** (`getSiderealSunLongitude`, `getSiderealMoonLongitude`) cost about
-twice what they did in 4.3.1 per call — ~14 µs against ~7 µs for the Moon,
-~2.8 µs against ~1.4 µs for the Sun — because the own-ephemeris series keep
-roughly three times `astronomy-engine`'s accuracy against JPL DE441, and the
-evaluation is sine-bound, so more terms cost proportionally more. Every
-documented workflow (`getDailyPanchang`, `getInstantPanchang`, the year/range
-APIs, the static tables) amortizes those reads through caches and is faster
-than 4.3.1 by the factors above; the per-call price is only visible to code
-calling the raw getters in a tight loop over distinct instants. For scanning
-workloads, prefer the range APIs or `getDailyPanchang` — they read through
-interpolated longitude blocks precisely so that this cost is paid once per day
-rather than once per read.
-
-The same trade surfaces once more in the birth-chart *primitives*:
-`computeRashiChart` and `computeNavamsa` measure ~0.31 ms against ~0.09 ms on
-published 4.3.1 — a chart is fifteen full-accuracy planet evaluations (three
-per planet, for the retrograde probes) and nothing amortizes them. The deeper
-chart stack inverts it again: `computeShadbala` and `computeBhavaBala` come
-out ~2× *faster* than 4.3.1, because v5 computes the positions once and reuses
-them. At a third of a millisecond per chart this is irrelevant interactively;
-it is visible only to code building thousands of charts in a batch.
-
-Cost is dominated by ephemeris evaluations, so the lever that matters is the one
-that avoids them:
-
-- **`sections`** — skip the optional ephemeris-backed blocks you don't need.
-  Dropping `'festivals'` takes a default call from ~0.41 ms to ~0.39 ms cold,
-  and dropping everything takes it to ~0.27 ms. See
-  [Narrowing the work](#narrowing-the-work).
-- **`computeEndTimes: false`** — a small win, never a large one. It skips the
-  transition searches, but those read through the same interpolated longitude
-  blocks the rest of the call has already built, so what it saves is arithmetic
-  rather than ephemeris: ~5% cold, ~10% warm. Use it to drop `endTime` fields
-  you don't want, not to go faster.
-
-  *Changed in v5.* Both entry points now always interpolate, so output depends
-  on neither `sections` nor `computeEndTimes` — see `INTERPOLATE_ALWAYS` in
-  `src/core/panchang.ts`. Earlier development builds chose the longitude cache's
-  mode from `computeEndTimes`, which made asking for *less* output cost *more*
-  on a full call; that is gone.
-
-Repeated calls for the same location-day are cheaper because solar rise/set
-events are cached process-wide, keyed on `(direction, lat, lon, elevation, UTC
-day)` and bounded at 20,000 entries. The cache makes sunrise single-valued as
-well as fast — see [Upgrading from 4.x](#sunrise-is-single-valued-per-location-day).
-It does not make a *single* cold rise/set call cheaper — against 4.3.1
-`getSunrise` is +1.8%, `getSunset` +8.8%, `getMoonrise` +5.5% and `getMoonset`
-+6.6%, i.e. unchanged to slightly worse — what it removes is the second and
-every later call for the same day.
-
-Range helpers apply the same narrowing internally:
-`computeEkadashiDatesForYear` reads only the tithi at sunrise and so runs with
-every optional section off (**~18 ms** for a full year, against ~2,360 ms in
-4.3.1); `computeFestivalsInRange` keeps only `'festivals'` and `'eclipse'`
-(**~131 ms/year**, against ~2,180); `computeSankrantisForYear` needs only the
-Sun, so it scans one solar longitude per day and bisects the 12 transits rather
-than building a panchang each day (**~3.3 ms/year**, against ~154).
-
-Birth-chart helpers are independent — calling them does not add work to
-`getDailyPanchang`. Within them, `computeShadbala` and `computeBhavaBala` build
-the natal positions once and derive all seven charts from them (~0.33 ms each,
-against ~0.72 in 4.3.1).
-
-**Charts are the one place v5 is slower.** `computeRashiChart` and
-`computeNavamsa` cost **~0.32 ms** against ~0.10 in 4.3.1 — 3.3×, entirely the
-planetary ephemeris, and the deliberate price of an order-of-magnitude accuracy
-gain against JPL DE441 (Mercury 6.50″ → 0.30″, Venus 19.59″ → 0.86″). If you
-build many charts and do not need that precision, 4.x was cheaper; nothing else
-in the library regressed.
-
-### Narrowing the work
-
-`PanchangSection` lists the four optional blocks. Everything else a daily
-panchang returns — the five elements, slot systems, muhurtas, inauspicious
-periods, masa / samvat / rashi — is arithmetic over the sunrise / sunset /
-next-sunrise triplet and is always computed, because skipping it would save
-nothing.
-
-| Section | Covers | Fields when omitted |
-|---|---|---|
-| `'festivals'` | Festival detection — needs the prior day's sunrise/sunset, the next day's transit, per-kala tithi anchors, and the prior day's Chandra Masa | `festivals: []` — but an eclipse entry is still prepended when `'eclipse'` is on |
-| `'eclipse'` | Eclipse overlapping the Hindu day | `eclipse: null` |
-| `'moonTimes'` | `moon.rise` / `moon.set` | `null` |
-| `'lunarWindows'` | Bhadra, Varjyam, Panchaka-Rahita — each binary-searches lunar longitude across the day | `null` / `[]` |
-
-```typescript
-// Everything (default).
-getDailyPanchang(date, loc, { timezone: 330 });
-
-// Festivals only — no moon times, no Bhadra/Varjyam windows.
-getDailyPanchang(date, loc, {
-  timezone: 330,
-  sections: ['festivals', 'eclipse'],
-});
-
-// Cheapest useful call: elements, slots, muhurtas and inauspicious periods
-// only. Those are arithmetic on the sunrise triplet and are always computed.
-getDailyPanchang(date, loc, {
-  timezone: 330,
-  sections: [],
-  computeEndTimes: false,
-});
-```
-
-Omitting a section leaves its fields at their documented empty value (`null`
-or `[]`) — never a half-filled one.
+**A default day is ~15× cheaper than 4.3.1**, a repeated day ~37×. The levers:
 
-Narrowing is **exactly output-neutral**: every field a narrowed call does
-compute is identical, to the millisecond, to what the full call would have
-returned. `sections` only decides what is skipped, never what a computed value
-is. (This is guaranteed by `LongitudeCache` memoizing on the exact instant. It
-was not true while that memo binned longitudes into 60-second buckets, when
-narrowing could shift transition times by up to 63 s.)
+- **`sections`** — skip the optional ephemeris-backed blocks (`'festivals'`,
+  `'eclipse'`, `'moonTimes'`, `'lunarWindows'`). Narrowing is exactly
+  output-neutral: every field a narrowed call computes is identical to the full
+  call's; omitted sections sit at their documented `null` / `[]`.
+- **`computeEndTimes: false`** — drops the `endTime` transition searches;
+  ~5–10% — use it to drop fields you don't want, not to go faster.
 
-### A note on Hermes / React Native
+Range helpers narrow internally: `computeEkadashiDatesForYear` **~18 ms/year**
+(4.3.1: ~2,360), `computeFestivalsInRange` **~131 ms/year** (~2,180),
+`computeSankrantisForYear` **~3.3 ms/year** (~154). Solar rise/set events are
+cached process-wide (bounded, 20k entries), which also makes them
+single-valued.
 
-Earlier versions of this table also quoted Hermes figures. Those were budget
-targets from the project plan, never measurements: `npm run test:hermes` runs
-`hermes-parser` over the built bundle to prove the syntax is Hermes-compatible,
-which is a *parse* check and does not execute anything. Hermes numbers will be
-published here once they are actually measured on device.
-
-What does carry over is the shape of the cost: it is dominated by ephemeris
-math, so the `sections` and `computeEndTimes` levers above have the same
-proportional effect on any runtime.
+One deliberate regression: raw chart primitives (`computeRashiChart`,
+`computeNavamsa`) cost ~0.32 ms vs ~0.10 in 4.3.1 — the price of an
+order-of-magnitude accuracy gain against JPL DE441. `computeShadbala` /
+`computeBhavaBala` went the other way, ~2× faster.
