The project bans a short list of marketing words in what it publishes, and no test read for them: the site's platform table described Recalbox's interface with one. The line now says what Recalbox does, and test_prose_style fails on any of those words in a tracked file.
With no platform named, cross_reference passed no standalone cores, so every dual profile was laid out as libretro only. The CLI and the site's gaps page left out 133 files that Batocera and RetroBat run standalone and that no platform declares (eka2l1 90, dolphin 21, cemu 11). Both now pass the union of every platform's standalone cores.
generate_readme, generate_site and slots resolve against data/ but took no hold when run on their own, as the documented commands do. A refresh swapping a tree mid-read then gave counts from half of it. Each now holds the trees shared, like verify and the builder.
17 TOSEC ZX Spectrum ROMs reported missing ship inside MAME's spectrum.zip from 0.190 to 0.289, while the collection holds only FBNeo's one-member archive of that name. provenance_report --missing and the site's wanted list now name the set, the member and the versions, matched by crc32 and size and by sha1 where both sides carry one.
Profiles, the wiki, comments, docstrings, command output and schema descriptions carried em-dashes, clause-joining semicolons, unicode arrows, box-drawing banners and check-mark glyphs. Each sentence was rewritten rather than having its character swapped. Hashes, paths, source_ref values and every cited file:line are unchanged, which a comparison of each parsed profile against the previous revision confirms.
validate_pr comments now say PASS and FAIL in words, and source_ref values in a profile's structured blocks render as code. test_prose_style fails if any of these comes back, in tracked files or in the generated site.
No gradient banner, no coloured stripes or dots beside cards, no lifting cards, pill badges or small-caps headers. File blocks are separated by a rule, tables keep the theme's own size, and headings no longer repeat the site name the header bar already shows. Classes nothing emits were removed.
The sitemap gave every page the build date. A page now states its own date
and a mkdocs hook passes it on, or leaves lastmod out. The values added to
the site's code spans today are also escaped: a backtick in a profile or
file name could close the span and inject markup.
A null upstream, version or detail is a stated fact. It now reads as
none, and a null upstream shows the project's own source. The site's
exclusion of local working notes no longer names the tool writing them.
The Wanted page listed 79 dumps the collection already produces,
such as a Kickstart's byte-swapped words or the halves of a C128
character ROM. The pipeline now records which missing dumps can be
derived, in derivable.json, and the page moves them to a section of
their own that names the held file and the transform.
Several DATs list the same dump, as No-Intro's three FM-7 sets do
for their system ROMs, and the provenance report counted it once per
listing: 2485 missing announced for 2284 distinct dumps, on the site
as well. Dumps are now counted by identity, each keeping the DATs
that list it.
argparse completed a prefix into the only flag starting with it:
slots.py --emulator read profiles from a directory named after the
emulator and reported nothing, and pipeline.py --all built every pack
variant. Every parser now refuses an abbreviation.
