## How it works
|
|
|
|
Documentation and metadata can drift from what emulators actually load.
|
|
To keep packs accurate, each file is checked against the emulator's source code.
|
|
|
|
1. **Read emulator source code** - trace every file the code loads, its expected hash and size
|
|
2. **Cross-reference with platforms** - match against what each platform declares
|
|
3. **Build packs** - include baseline files plus what each platform's cores need
|
|
4. **Verify** - run platform-native checks and emulator-level validation
|
|
|
|
