"### How it works",
"",
"1. **Profile emulators from source code** - read the code, document every file loaded, its hash, size, and validation",
"2. **Cross-reference with platforms** - each platform (RetroArch, Batocera, Recalbox...) declares what it needs",
"3. **Build packs** - for each platform, include the baseline files + what its cores actually require",
"4. **Verify everything** - platform-native verification (MD5, existence) + emulator-level validation (CRC32, SHA256, size)",
"",
"When a platform and an emulator disagree on a file, we detect it. When a better variant exists in the repo, we use it.",
