Single source of truth for gap page: verification status from
verify.py (verified/untested/missing/mismatch), file provenance
from cross_reference (bios/data/large_file/missing).
cross_reference.py: _find_in_repo -> _resolve_source returning
source category, stop skipping storage: release/large_file,
add by_path_suffix lookup, all_declared param for global check.
generate_site.py: gap page now shows verification by platform,
18 hash mismatches, and core complement with provenance breakdown.
find_undeclared_files was enriching declared_names with DB aliases,
filtering core extras that were never packed by Phase 1 under that
name. Pass strict YAML names to _collect_emulator_extras so alias-
only files (dc_bios.bin, amiga-os-310-a1200.rom, scph102.bin, etc.)
get packed at the emulator's expected path. Also fix truth mode
output message and --all-variants --verify-packs quick-exit bypass.
Run ruff check --fix: remove unused imports (F401), fix f-strings
without placeholders (F541), remove unused variables (F841), fix
duplicate dict key (F601).
Run isort --profile black: normalize import ordering across all files.
Run ruff format: apply consistent formatting (black-compatible) to
all 58 Python files.
3 intentional E402 remain (imports after require_yaml() must execute
after yaml is available).
Remove 4 unused functions from generate_site.py (generate_wiki_index,
generate_wiki_architecture, generate_wiki_tools, generate_wiki_profiling)
that contained stale data. Wiki pages are sourced from wiki/ directory.
Update generate_site.py contributing section with correct test counts
(249 total, 186 E2E, 8 pack integrity) and pack integrity documentation.
Move verification logic to generate_pack.py --verify-packs (single
source of truth). test_pack_integrity.py is now a thin wrapper that
calls the CLI. Pipeline step 6/8 uses the same CLI entry point.
Renumber all pipeline steps 1-8 (was skipping from 5 to 8/9).
Update generate_site.py with pack integrity test documentation.
Extract each platform ZIP to tmp/ (real filesystem, not /tmp tmpfs)
and verify every declared file exists at the correct path with the
correct hash per the platform's native verification mode.
Handles ZIP inner content verification (checkInsideZip, md5_composite,
inner ROM MD5) and path collision deduplication.
Integrated as pipeline step 6/8. Renumber all pipeline steps to be
sequential (was skipping from 5 to 8).
RetroDECK: core extras with subdirectory paths (e.g. vice/C64/,
fbneo/, dc/) were placed outside bios/ because the prefix was only
inferred for bare filenames. Add _detect_extras_prefix() to infer
the dominant BIOS prefix from YAML destinations.
RomM: core extras landed flat at bios/{file} instead of the required
bios/{platform_slug}/{file}. Add _detect_slug_structure() to detect
per-system slug layouts and _map_emulator_to_slug() to route each
extra to the correct slug subfolder.
Also skip manifest writes when only the generated timestamp changed,
preventing unnecessary diffs in install/*.json.
Closes#43
FBNeo and Kronos expect BIOS archives in core-specific subdirectories
(system/fbneo/, system/kronos/). RetroArch firmware check uses .info
paths which include these prefixes, so files at root show as Missing.
Add archive_prefix field to emulator profiles. The pack code now places
archive copies in the prefixed subdirectory while keeping root copies
for cores that expect them there (e.g. Geolith for neogeo.zip).
9 new wiki pages: getting-started, faq, troubleshooting,
advanced-usage, verification-modes, adding-a-platform,
adding-a-scraper, testing-guide, release-process.
Updated architecture.md with mermaid diagrams, tools.md with
full pipeline and target/exporter sections, profiling.md with
missing fields, index.md with glossary and nav links.
Expanded CONTRIBUTING.md from stub to full contributor guide.
Filter .old.yml from load_emulator_profiles, generate_db alias
collection, and generate_readme counts. Fix BizHawk sha1 mode
in tools.md, fix RetroPie path, fix export_truth.py typos.
replace yaml.dump with surgical text edits for contents/source_ref.
preserves comments, block scalars, quoting, indentation.
fix FBNeo new entry detection using parsed keys instead of text search.
sparse clone upstream repos, parse BIOS root sets from C source,
cache as JSON, merge into emulator profiles with backup.
covers macro expansion, version detection, subset profile protection.
write_if_changed in common.py compares content after stripping
timestamps (generated_at, Auto-generated on, Generated on).
applied to generate_db, generate_readme, generate_site.
eliminates timestamp-only diffs in database.json, README.md,
mkdocs.yml, and 423 docs pages.
bios_mode: agnostic (profile) and agnostic: true (file) for
emulators that accept any valid BIOS without specific filename.
find_undeclared_files skips agnostic entries, pack extras scan
includes all matching DB files by path prefix + size criteria,
resolve_local_file has agnostic fallback with rename README.
applied to pcsx2, lrps2 (bios_mode), melonds dsi_nand (file).
expand_platform_declared_names resolves platform file MD5s
through the database to recover canonical names and aliases,
eliminating false positive undeclared files when a platform
renames a file (e.g. Batocera ROM1 vs gsplus ROM).
