ArkOS ran the GBA with gpsp_ezode_mod and dArkOS with mgba_rumble: no
profile named them, so an install for the card's games kept every GBA
core's files, FBNeo's 3,472 data files among them. Each rename proven
from the OS build (same code base, same BIOS loading) joins its
profile's cores. The resolver folds either separator, and falls back to
the emulator column when the core names a mode, a machine or a plugin
of that program, only where its profile declares the folder's system:
MAME documents no GameKing ROM. 109 unresolved names are 56, each one
recorded with why in tests/test_games_index.py.
XRoar reads the Dragon 200-E and Alice ROMs for those machine configs
(src/xroar.c:437-444, 552-558 at 1.12.1), and VICE the Japanese kernal
and chargen for the C64 JAP and VIC-1001 models: a (Japan) file name
selects the NTSC model (libretro-core.c:2018-2034). No code branches on a
territory for these files, so region: is removed, as profiling.md rules
for a model enum.
Each standalone profile records where its version is read: the source
at its pin (clk 2026-07-23-136-g9020107, shadps4 0.20.1 WIP, eden
v0.2.0-401-g26a03d2), the APK, binary or archive read (kind package),
or, where no reading can be made, kind unverified with the reason: a
host the tools cannot read, a forge gone or not answering, no build
recorded as read, a pin on another branch. Those keep their value,
unconfirmed.
Aliases equal to a name a platform launcher chooses were read in each emulator's code at its pin. Removed where the code opens no such name: xemu Complex_4627v1.03.bin (the core offers Complex_4627_v1.03.bin), mednafen gecard.pce, dosbox bios.rom, raze Roland_SC-55.sf2, nine DraStic names, and clk's upper-case MSX names, whose paths now read msx.rom, msx2.rom and msx2ext.rom as ROMCatalogue.cpp:777-841 names them. Kept aliases now name the code list they come from in the entry note.
38 profiles published outside a forge now name the page that announces their releases, so profile_sync and check_freshness see a new version. EDuke32 and Fury take the synthesis build label as core_version, the name the project gives that build.
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.
240 file-level entries used notes: instead of the canonical note:
field. verify.py and cross_reference.py only read note:, so these
were silently ignored.
