Abdessamad Derraz 8114f48e30 feat: fill a core option default by model
RetroDECK sets LRPS2's pcsx2_bios to scph10000.bin. The record names
the frontend, so the core is the one whose entry reads that setting.
Its entry is a placeholder, and the name spells a model: the held dump
the catalogues describe as SCPH-10000 goes in under that name in the
entry's directory, primaries first, then the earliest Redump revision
(ps2-0100j-20000117).

Abdessamad Derraz 21d34748e5 feat: list unsourceable launcher names apart
A launcher name that a reader's profile entry declares unsourceable is
no file left to find. Its row carries the reason and both reports
print it under its own count, never mixed with the names to acquire.

Abdessamad Derraz 6024932846 feat: read a launcher name with an added extension
ROCKNIX's Amiberry configs pass kick34005.A500.rom and
kick40068.A1200.rom, Amiberry's names for Kickstart 1.3 and 3.1 with
.rom appended. Amiberry opens the path as given and boots AROS without
it, so the pack now ships the held ROM under the launcher's name.

Abdessamad Derraz 82a6b2f833 feat: read the emuelec launchers
emuelec_launchers.py reads emuelecRunEmu.sh and the scripts and
configs it starts at the tag batocera-systems is read at (v4.8): 36
records for RetroArch, retrorun, freej2me, MAME, PICO-8, Flycast,
Amiberry, DuckStation, Yabasanshiro, jzIntv, Mupen64Plus, Hatari,
AdvanceMAME, ScummVM, Dolphin and the MIDI synths.

Abdessamad Derraz 979111f6f2 feat: settle launcher names the code fills
A search a launcher stops at the first held name of is filled, and a
copy from the platform's own package or script brings its own file:
neither is a name the collection lacks. A launcher that writes its
file into the setting a profile entry is read from (config_key) now
receives that entry's held file under its own name, in the report and
in the pack.

Abdessamad Derraz b270a24d7b feat: take a platform's own libretro builds
A list naming retroarch now takes the libretro profiles whose built_by names the platform: ROCKNIX ships yabadabadoo with its RetroArch and named it nowhere, so its files never reached the ROCKNIX pack. Only change across the registry: rocknix + yabadabadoo. Also quotes the installer's current unproven-drive message.

Abdessamad Derraz fed8bdddd8 feat: read the lexaloffle launcher for batocera
Batocera's lexaloffleGenerator runs bios/pico-8/pico8 and
bios/voxatron/vox, raises when the binary is missing or not
executable, and puts each folder on LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The new
extractor records both per system from the AST, with the lines
of batocera-43.1 that say it.

Abdessamad Derraz 6c14468862 feat: say the installer and setup pages plainly
- The installer speaks without "you": the first screen asks "Where
  to install?", rows read "Copy the BIOS files from an old card or a
  folder", a close match reads "Close matches: ...". The handheld
  launchers and their port text follow, and the pronoun guard no
  longer lists any installer message.
- A setup that runs as an app opens on its one-line command, the
  folder table after it; a setup that runs on its own device keeps
  the network folder first, which its ZIP route needs.
- The home steps say what to do: "Its page gives one line to copy",
  "Paste it, press Enter".

Abdessamad Derraz 4c0c480bdd docs: tell agents how to drive the installer
llms.txt now gives the package commands, the plan as JSON events from

with --yes. Tests hold each fact to install.py and to the exit code table
of the installer page.

Abdessamad Derraz 92546794e2 docs: archive recipes page and README badges
Every archive has a recipe in recipes/archives.json, and no page a user
reads said so. A short reference page says what a recipe is, how to
rebuild one archive and what exact and canonical mean. Its counts and the
README line are counted from the recipe file at each build.

The README gains a row of four badges: PyPI version, Python versions,
the Validation workflow on main and the license. Tests hold the badges,
the counts and the page's command.

Abdessamad Derraz 51aa626028 fix: fetch platform originals without exporting

Abdessamad Derraz 602945faf0 feat: logos, build stamps and exact wording
- The installer says "Every file on the list is in place." where it
  said "Everything is in place.": a check covers the files the
  collection holds, and the required ones it lacks follow.
- The FAQ, first install, legal and home pages state only what the
  code shows (PlayStation 1 and Saturn run without a BIOS on some
  emulators, save files are never touched, records are added).
- MinUI and MyMinUI show their own boot logos, and the Android,
  Linux handheld and iPhone tiles show the Android robot, Tux and a
  plain device icon, each credited in sources.json.
- Each Markdown copy, llms.txt and llms-full.txt name the commit
  they were built from, version.json the current one, and the
  answering rules tell assistants to fetch a stale copy again.
- The deploy lists the pages whose words changed (digests.json) and
  posts them to IndexNow once the site is live.

Abdessamad Derraz 77fef7289f feat: show the handheld demo and steps per tab
make_demo.py records a second variant: the full-screen interface at the
640x480 screen of an R36S, on an ArkOS root made with bwrap, started as
the Tools menu launcher starts it (RETROBIOS_PAD=gptokeyb), driven by the
keys gptokeyb sends for the buttons. demo.json holds one entry per
variant with its alt text. No Windows variant: under pwsh on Linux the
installer's summary gives --dest /mnt/e/bios back.

The quick install box of Get your files gets an "On the device" tab with
the handheld recording, the terminal recording under the others but
Windows, and, under the text of each computer tab, a drawing of opening
the terminal and pasting (sitesteps.py, inline SVG in the theme's
colours, title and desc). The terminal steps name the physical action.

The README ran 211 lines and 2,000 words: five commands with options,

before the help. It now says what the project does, gives the line that
installs for Windows and for the rest, shows it, lists the six ZIPs and
the setups that install by command, and leads to the site, where the
figures and every option live. The build commands sit in a closed block.
No personal pronoun is left in its text.
