Span Classify tool
The Span Classify tool reclassifies generic code:markup inline codes —
placeholders and paired open/close codes — into proper semantic vocabulary
types such as bold, italic, hyperlink, or image. It is designed to run after
readers that emit generic markup codes (for example bridge XLIFF or Okapi
readers), so that later tools and editors see meaningful inline-code types
rather than opaque markup.
Classification uses two strategies: a map of known Okapi code sub-types, and, failing that, the HTML element name parsed from the code's raw data. When a semantic type is resolved, the tool also applies the vocabulary's display form, equivalence text, and editing constraints. Codes it cannot classify are left as they are. The tool has no configurable parameters.

Processing notes
Operates on inline-code runs in both source and target segments.
Recurses into plural and select constructs so codes inside them are classified as well.
Limitations
Classification covers known Okapi sub-types and common HTML elements; unrecognized codes are left unchanged.
Has no configurable parameters.
