`R/aFIPC.R` 내에서 `mirt::fscores(..., method = 'MAP')` 가 불필요하게 두 번씩 호출되고 있던 병목 현상을 해결했습니다. `ThetaOldform`, `ThetaLinkedform`, `ThetaNewform` 변수에 먼저 계산 결과를 저장(캐싱)한 뒤 `mirt::expected.test(...)` 에 전달하여 성능을 크게 향상시켰습니다. 또한 최적화에 대한 배움을 `.jules/bolt.md` 에 기록하였고, 패키지 빌드 경고를 막기 위해 `.Rbuildignore` 에 해당 폴더를 추가했습니다.

+## 2026-06-25 - [Optimize redundant fscores calls in autoFIPC]
+**Learning:** In the `aFIPC` package, `mirt::fscores(..., method = 'MAP')` is an expensive operation. Redundant calls inside `autoFIPC` for `Theta` calculations slow down the algorithm significantly. Pre-calculating `ThetaOldform`, `ThetaLinkedform`, and `ThetaNewform` and passing them to `mirt::expected.test(..., Theta = ...)` avoids recomputing them.
+**Action:** Always pre-calculate and reuse the resulting Theta variables rather than calling `fscores` redundantly to improve performance in mirt operations.
