+# Regex porting
+
+Composer uses PHP's `preg_*` functions (backed by PCRE). Shirabe ports these to the Rust
+[`regex`](https://docs.rs/regex) crate. Because PCRE and the `regex` crate have different feature
+sets, follow the rules below when porting.
+
+## Do not introduce a PCRE crate
+
+The `regex` crate is not based on PCRE library and does not support some features that PCRE does.
+
+Even when such a feature is needed, do not introduce a PCRE-family crate such as `pcre2`. Either
+rewrite the pattern into a form the `regex` crate can express, or decompose it into hand-written
+logic that does not use a regular expression.
+
+## Panic on pattern compile failure
+
+When a pattern fails to compile, `panic!`. Do not wrap it in a `Result` and propagate it to the
+caller.
+
+This reflects a design assumption that Composer-derived patterns always compile successfully at
+runtime: a compile failure is not a recoverable error but a programming mistake (or a porting bug).
+
+## Do not port performance-only possessive quantifiers
+
+When a PCRE possessive quantifier (`++`, `*+`, `?+`, etc.) is used solely to suppress backtracking
+for performance, replace it with the plain quantifier (`+`, `*`, `?`).
+
+The `regex` crate never backtracks, so it has no possessive quantifiers and has no need for them.
+
+## Port other unsupported features ad hoc
+
+For any other PCRE feature the `regex` crate does not support (conditional subpatterns,
+backreferences, etc.), port it case by case. When you do, make the transformation explicit with a
+comment in the following form:
+
+```
+// Regex pattern compatibility:
