--yes alone installed the whole list, 6.4 GB on a dArkOS card holding
two games, while the screen offers what the games need first. A run that
asks nothing now takes that first choice when the card holds games, and
says so. --all-files installs the whole list. A run given its list
(the screen's own runs) or narrowed by name is unchanged.
The manifest names the cores that read a tree no platform system
declares, every reader of a shared tree included. An install for the
games of a card keeps such a tree only when its plan runs one of them:
a SNES game on ArkOS (snes9x) no longer takes FBNeo's cheats and samples.
A system no setup names a core for keeps every core's tree.
The data tree record carries the needed flag since 072380c26, and
the manifest test still built the three-part one. profile_sync's triage
lists and _emit's returns, site_insights' GoatCounter answers and
make_demo's blocks are annotated, and the baseline loses the entry
that no longer occurs.
Main changed install.py without the launcher index, so --add-app
refused every launcher and nine tests failed on main itself. The demo
script added a list without a type, and an archive-size test still
built the data-tree refs without the needed flag the builder reads.
The README shows the GIF under the commands. The home page and Get your
files show the video through InstallDemo.astro: nothing is fetched until
it is on screen, reduced motion and Save-Data keep the poster with a play
button, and a description is read to screen readers.
scripts/make_demo.py builds an ArkOS card under tmp/demo/, mounts it in a
user mount namespace, serves the checkout on loopback and runs
docs_assets/demo/install.tape with VHS, then encodes the GIF, WebM, MP4
and poster and holds them to their size targets.
Three site commits pushed to main fail checks CI runs: two prose
semicolons, an untyped signature, and GoatCounter answers read as a
dict without a test. GoatCounter's stats now go through one reader
that refuses an answer that is not an object.
The skill and llms.txt said "a quote" where the tool refuses the
typographic ones too, which end a PowerShell string. One constant states
the set for both, and points to device_setup_command.
The skill and llms.txt told an agent to write --dest=<card>/bios bare.
A folder now goes in single quotes, attached to its option, and one that
holds a quote, a backtick or a control character, or starts with -, is
a question for the user.
ARD reserves text/markdown for agent skills, and Lighthouse warned on
the llms.txt entry. skills/setup-bios/SKILL.md holds the steps that set
up a device with the fewest files, and the manifest lists it as a skill.
llms.txt and an ARD manifest name the pages and the JSON API, and lead
an agent setting up a device to --for-games --required-only. Every page
registers four read-only WebMCP tools: the setup command, a hash lookup,
an emulator's files and the site search.
--for-games --required-only on a dArkOS card from a computer kept every
file of the list: --dest skipped the card's detection, so its rom
folders were never found. The games part beside the BIOS folder now
names them. The manifest marks a data tree every core runs without
(optional), and --required-only leaves it out: one GBA and one SNES game
took FBNeo's cheats and samples, 3,472 files no game opened.
validate.yml runs export_native with continue-on-error, and pr_checks
failed the whole run on it. The step is now shown and does not fail
the run, and a test keeps that list equal to the workflow's.
Code moved to sitecollection.py and the triage progress added errors
the baseline did not hold. A reused loop name, two lists without a
type, returns without a value, and a regex match read without a test
for None. Two baseline entries no longer occur and are removed.
og:title and twitter:title carry the search title ("mGBA BIOS
files"), an emulator page shares its maker's card, a download page is
dated by its release in the sitemap, and a Switch emulator's files are
called keys.
validate.yml runs mypy against its baseline and checks that shellcheck
is installed, and pr_checks ran neither. The guard test only knew the
python, vermin and npm commands, so it missed both. A step can now pipe
its output into a second command, as mypy into mypy-baseline filter.
With no required firmware among the bundled entries the line read
'20 (20 more, --verbose lists them)'. It now reads '20 (--verbose lists
them)', and reading-reports.md quotes the run as it prints.
Only verify.py and generate_pack.py moved to the repository root. From
any other folder slots, region_audit, provenance_report and bundled_only
said database.json was missing and to rebuild it, identity and
list_platforms named a missing folder, and game_rules ended on a
FileNotFoundError traceback. work_from_repo_root moves to common.py and
the eight tools call it: defaults are read from the root, a path the
user typed from where it was typed.
verify.py --emulator fbneo --strict > log 2>&1 put the ERROR verdict on
the first line of the log: redirected, stdout is block-buffered and
stderr is not, and run_cli flushed stdout only after main returned.
run_cli now sets stdout to line buffering, so every tool it runs keeps
the two streams in the order they were written.
Without --verbose each missing core file was followed by a bare '[size]'
line that told the reader nothing. It now reads 'validates size', the
verbose wording without the expected values.
'Bundled with their emulator, not collected: 154' listed the 14 required
firmware names and nothing said the rest existed. The line now ends with
'139 more, --verbose lists them', as the Core files line does.
Every profile is loaded whatever the command, so one misindented key in
an unrelated profile stopped verify.py --emulator handy and generate_pack
on a 37-line yaml traceback. The sources common.py reads (profiles,
platform files, registry, shared groups, targets) now raise
SourceUnreadable, which run_cli prints on one line with the file, the
line and the validate_schemas command. It is not a FileNotFoundError:
ten callers skip a platform whose file is absent, and a damaged one must
not be skipped the same way.
--db databse.json, with database.json in the same folder, was told to run
generate_db --force --output databse.json: a rescan of the whole
collection into a second file under the typo. load_database now names the
closest .json in that folder first, and gives the rebuild command only
when none is close.
A mistyped --system said '--list-systems lists all 579' and the listing
prints 532: the hint counted every spelling across profiles, and
system_index merges the ones that differ in case or separator before
printing. Both verify.py and generate_pack.py now pass that count to
suggest_names, whose listed parameter exists for this case.
