es_bios.xml names only the cores that need a BIOS, so a hand-kept
registry list stood in, with mame and mamemess that Recalbox does not
ship and without vice, ymir, vircon32 and others it does. The scraper
now reads each system.ini of recalbox-romfs2 at the scraped tag, and
the registry list is gone.
verify.py and generate_pack.py must reach the same verdict on the same
file, and CLAUDE.md calls any divergence critical, but each spelled out
mode == 'existence' in its own words. Both now ask nativemode whether
the frontend reads the file's bytes, which is the one fact the rest
follows from, and a test holds the two answers together.
The BaseScraper contract the wiki asks contributors to implement had no
caller anywhere, so nothing proved compare_with_config, has_changes or
test_connection still worked.
