docs: move root and stale docs into docs/ and docs/internal/
The repository root carried seven markdown files that were not onboarding
material, plus two that had been superseded by the code they described. This
sorts them: reader-facing docs to docs/, working notes to docs/internal/, and
the two superseded ones merged into the docs that replaced them.
Moved to docs/: WIDESCREEN.md, ENHANCEMENTS.md, TCP_COMMANDS.md
Moved to docs/internal/: PRINCIPLES.md, ISSUES.md, DEBUG.md, GTE_LM_FIX.md,
and from docs/: bios-hardening.md, overlay-status.md,
overlay-plan.md, overlay-recompilation-design.md,
overlay-discovery.md, TOMBA2_EXC_CONSULT_RESPONSE.md,
CASE_A_AOT_GAP.md, audit_inventory.md
Moved to docs/internal/upstream/: UPSTREAM_2026-08-20.md
The root keeps only what belongs there: README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, LICENSE,
CLAUDE.md, THIRD_PARTY_ATTRIBUTION.md, RELEASE_NOTES.md, the dotfiles and
psxrecomp_cli.py.
MERGES
SPLITGEN_MIGRATION.md folded into docs/BUILDING.md as "Split generated C". Its
migration instructions were stale in a way that mattered: it told every game
repo to hand-edit its CMakeLists and add a file(GLOB ...) over
<serial>_full*.c, but runtime/runtime.cmake now does that itself. GEN_FULL_GLOB
is a multi-value argument of psxrecomp_add_game_runtime(); the loop at
runtime.cmake:1985 makes each pattern absolute against CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR,
expands it with file(GLOB), and concatenates the hits into
GAME_GENERATED_FULL_C. So a title names the pattern and gets however many shards
a regeneration produced. The rewritten section describes that, the two-step
fallback when the globs match nothing (GEN_FULL_FALLBACK, else <serial>_full.c
derived from the dispatch marker by substituting _dispatch.c), and the one
caveat the code actually has: that file(GLOB) is plain, not CONFIGURE_DEPENDS,
so a regeneration which changes the shard COUNT needs a re-configure to be seen.
psxrecomp-toml-readme.md folded into docs/GAME_PROJECT_SETUP.md as "EXE-only
autofill (psxrecomp-toml)", placed after "Disc autofill (probe_disc.py)" and
before "Project Studio" so the two autofill paths sit together. Its documented
flags were checked against the usage text in recompiler/src/main_toml.cpp:28-42
and against the argument parser at :150-165 -- all seven options match with no
drift, so the flag list is reproduced as-is. Added a pointer that probe_disc.py
is preferable when a cue exists, since that tool does the same EXE-header work
plus disc identity and netplay gates.
FUNCTIONAL FIXES
tools/gen_tcp_commands.py wrote to REPO/"TCP_COMMANDS.md". After the move that
path does not exist, so the generator would have created a new stray root file
and --check would have failed against it forever. Retargeted to
REPO/"docs"/"TCP_COMMANDS.md", along with the seven docstring and message
strings that name the path.
Running it surfaced two further problems, both fixed here:
* The doc was genuinely stale -- pre-existing drift, not introduced by this
commit (the moved file is byte-identical to origin/master, and no
debug-server command table is touched here). Four commands registered since
the last regeneration were missing from the index -- cdrom_timing_dump,
savestate_status, ws_ui_groups, xprobe_watch -- and scanline had gained a
backend. Regenerated: 307 -> 311 commands, and the change is confined to the
AUTOGEN block (the hand-written head and tail are byte-identical to master).
tools/gen_tcp_commands.py --check now exits 0.
* DOC.write_text() has no newline argument, so Python translated every newline
to os.linesep. On Windows that rewrote all 585 lines of the file to CRLF and
turned a four-line index update into a whole-file diff -- measured: 589 CRLF
/ 0 LF after a run, against 0 CRLF / 585 LF in the repo. Now written through
an explicit newline="" handle, verified to leave the file at 0 CRLF.
runtime/include/debug_server.h:9 and runtime/src/debug_server.c:8 cited "TCP.md
and DEBUG.md". TCP.md has never existed in this repo under that name; both now
name docs/TCP_COMMANDS.md and docs/internal/DEBUG.md.
LINK AND REFERENCE FIXES
Every inbound reference to a moved file was located by grepping each basename
across the whole tracked tree, not just the markdown. Markdown hrefs in
README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, docs/COMPILING_OVERLAYS.md,
docs/AOT_OVERLAY_PLAN.md, docs/RELOCATION_MANIFEST_FORMAT.md,
docs/config_schema.md, docs/OVERLAY_XREF.md, docs/TCP_COMMANDS.md and several
docs/internal/ files now point at the new locations; where two files became
siblings under docs/internal/ the path was shortened rather than lengthened
(bios-hardening.md's reference to overlay-discovery.md, for instance).
docs/COMPILING_OVERLAYS.md's "in this folder" phrasing was wrong once two of the
three files it listed moved, so it now names internal/ explicitly.
24 source-comment mentions of ENHANCEMENTS.md sections G1.x across 19 files
(recompiler, runtime, cmake) were retargeted to docs/ENHANCEMENTS.md with the
section numbers untouched. docs/SHADOW_ENHANCEMENTS.md is a DIFFERENT file and
was deliberately excluded.
20 rationale strings citing docs/CASE_A_AOT_GAP.md across the four
recompiler/seeds/*.json files were updated. Done as a byte-level substring
replacement rather than a JSON round-trip: two of those files are stored with
CRLF endings and two with LF, and re-serializing them reformatted 5,700 lines.
The byte-level version changes exactly 20 lines and each file still parses.
References that look similar but point elsewhere were deliberately left alone,
and are worth naming so a future pass does not "fix" them:
* "recomp-template PRINCIPLES.md" / "NES recomp template PRINCIPLES.md" in
CLAUDE.md:43, docs/SHADOW_ENHANCEMENTS.md:28,
docs/internal/HLE_SCHEDULER_CARVEOUT_PLAN.md:5,
runtime/src/debug_server.c:4934 and tools/parity_diff.py:8 are a different
repository's file. Only the five that mean this repo's PRINCIPLES.md were
updated.
* Every remaining bare ISSUES.md mention is a GAME repo's tracker
(MegaManX6Recomp 2/7/8/9, TombaRecomp 6), not this repo's.
* docs/disc-speed.md:4,54,56 and docs/internal/bios-hardening.md:5 name
overlay-discovery as a BRANCH, not a file, so no path applies.
INDEXES
README.md's "New here?" table gains rows for docs/WIDESCREEN.md,
docs/ENHANCEMENTS.md and docs/TCP_COMMANDS.md. docs/internal/README.md gains
sections indexing all fourteen documents that moved in, plus an "Upstream
contributor reviews" section describing upstream/ and the new sweep file, plus a
"Removed" bullet for CYCLE_TIMING_ARCH.md (deleted in the previous commit)
pointing at FAITHFUL_TIMING_PLAN.md, CYCLE_MODEL_BEETLE.md and
PRECISE_IRQ_SLICE.md -- following the SLJIT_PERSIST_CACHE.md precedent already
in that file.
docs/ENHANCEMENTS.md:7 claimed framework bugs live in "game repos' ISSUES.md
until a framework tracker exists". A framework tracker does exist; it now says
so and names the Beads epic.
VERIFICATION
A link checker was written to scan every tracked *.md for relative links,
resolving each against the tree being scanned. Baseline at origin/master: 129
files, 137 relative links, 3 broken. After both commits: 127 files, 159 relative
links, 3 broken -- the SAME three, all pre-existing and untouched here:
docs/DATA_SHARDS.md -> INSTANT_LOADS_PARKED.md (never existed)
docs/DATA_SHARDS.md -> INSTANT_LOADS_SPIKE2.md (never existed)
docs/NETPLAY.md -> ../lib/recomp-net/README.md (inside a submodule)
Zero new broken links. The checker's own coverage was checked against a raw grep
for markdown link openers: the 3-link difference is C++ lambdas inside code
blocks, correctly not treated as links.
Also verified: py_compile over all 113 tracked tools/*.py plus psxrecomp_cli.py;
all four seed JSONs still parse; the test-registration guard still reports 123
test files all registered; recompiler/tests/test_coverage_vault.py still passes;
and no file in this commit had its line endings flipped (checked mechanically
across all 50 modified files, after two files were caught and redone).

fix(bios): make the boot-skip flag mean the same thing on every BIOS
`bios_hle` (default on) is the player-facing "skip the BIOS and go
straight to the game" flag, and it did nothing under the bundled
OpenBIOS: choosing OpenBIOS sat the player in the boot animation while
the identical build on retail SCPH-1001 went straight to the game.
Root cause was ordering, not policy. The tier has two axes with
different per-image requirements:
* boot-skip needs only `shell_entry_phys`, works under pure LLE
(nothing is synthesized — the shell call just returns
immediately), so any image exporting it can skip
* kernel-call needs `deliver_event_ret`, the kernel's own
DeliverEvent `$ra`, or a delivered callback returns to
the wrong PC
main.cpp correctly refused the call axis on an image without
`deliver_event_ret` by assigning `bios_hle = false` — and then derived
`boot_skip` from that already-mutated flag. OpenBIOS omits
`deliver_event_ret` (B0 semantics unvalidated) but DOES export
`shell_entry_phys`, so an available skip was cancelled by an unrelated
refusal, and one flag meant two things depending on a BIOS detail no
player can see.
Both axes are now decided by one pure, dependency-free function,
`psx_bios_hle_plan()` (runtime/src/bios_hle_plan.c): the boot decision
reads the REQUESTED `bios_hle`, each axis is gated on only the anchor it
needs, and refusals are reported at startup instead of downgrading
silently. `psx_bios_hle_configure()` clamps `boot_skip` to
`shell_entry_phys != 0` as a backstop so the banner and `hle_dump`
cannot overstate what can fire. The main.cpp local is renamed
`bios_hle_requested` and is no longer written back from the plan — the
`session_reboot` path re-enters that block, so folding a refusal into
the request would have made a netplay rematch differ from first launch.
Also in this pass:
* A BIOS profile's `[runtime]` block was parsed into
`BiosConfig::runtime` and read by NOTHING, and bios/OpenBIOS.toml
carried an inert `bios_hle = false` there that read as the reason HLE
was off on OpenBIOS. It was not. `load_bios_config` now REJECTS
`[runtime]` in a BIOS profile: a profile states facts about an image,
never preferences.
* `psx_icache_fastpath_test` had been unbuildable ("redefinition of
`psx_advance_cycles`" — the test's counting stub vs the header's
`static inline`), which blocked every runtime test registered after
it. It now builds with `PSX_OVERLAY_DLL_BUILD=1`, the seam
psx_cycles.h already provides for a TU supplying its own advance.
Tests: new `bios_hle_plan_test` pins the matrix, including a 64-case
sweep asserting the boot decision is independent of
`deliver_event_ret` and the call decision independent of
`shell_entry_phys`. Runtime ctest 15/15, recompiler ctest 30/30.
Validated on Ape Escape (SCUS-94423) built against this framework with
both backends linked, headless, all four cases:
OpenBIOS default bios_boot=skip to game; route=2 fire at vec 0x30000
ra=0xBFC06EA8 (the continuation OpenBIOS.toml
documents); in-game on screen
retail default bios_boot=skip to game; route=2 at vec 0x30000
ra=0xBFC0702C; in-game on screen; differs only in
bios_backend=HLE (LLE fallback)
PSX_BIOS_HLE=0 bios_boot=real intro; ring empty (no hook)
KEEP_INTRO=1 bios_boot=real intro; ring empty

docs: correct six statements that contradict the code
These are not stale-by-omission; each asserts something the code does not do,
and each was verified against the implementation before editing.
docs/BUILDING.md
- PSX_ENABLE_VULKAN was documented "off by default" in two places. It
defaults ON (runtime/runtime.cmake:778). Corrected both, and noted that
the build option being ON does not make Vulkan the runtime renderer.
- Removed the PSX_BUILD_COSIM row: no option() for it exists anywhere in
the tree. Replaced with PSX_NETPLAY, which is real (runtime.cmake:194).
- Step 2 (regenerate BIOS) was labelled "(Optional)". It is required before
the first runtime build: step 3 configures psx-runtime from
generated/OpenBIOS_full.c and fails at configure time without it
("Cannot find source file" / "No SOURCES given to target"). Regenerating
the *retail* backend remains genuinely optional; that distinction is now
explicit.
- "This repository has no required git submodules" contradicted .gitmodules
(recomp-ui, lib/recomp-net) and README's --recurse-submodules clone.
Replaced with a table of which submodule each build option needs.
docs/ARCHITECTURE.md
- Same Vulkan default correction.
- Removed the claim that BIOS and game configs merge with "game wins on
scalar keys". No such merge exists: load_bios_config is called only from
the recompiler front-ends (main_bios.cpp, and main_psx.cpp solely to build
the BiosAddressModel) and never from runtime/src/main.cpp.
docs/config_schema.md
- Same merge claim, stated in more detail. Replaced with the actual runtime
precedence: env > CLI > settings.toml > game.toml > compiled default.
docs/STRING_TRANSLATION.md
- Header said "SPEC (design only - no implementation yet)" above a shipped
feature: runtime/src/text_xlate.cpp (~970 lines), initialised from
main.cpp, configured via [localization]. Marked IMPLEMENTED and added the
public entry points.
docs/FEATURES.md
- Layer A (dynamic DLL overlay loading) was headed "SHELVED". It is the live
production dispatch path: overlay_loader.c is ~4,400 lines with 15
LoadLibrary sites, last modified 2026-07-26, and COMPILING_OVERLAYS.md
documents shipping the resulting .dll shards in releases. Added a status
banner and kept the original account as history, since the CRC-keying
dead ends it records are still worth reading.
docs/BIOS_SELECTION.md
- Claimed the identity gate checks "size, CRC32, SHA-256". It checks size
and CRC32 only (bios_backend_for_file, main.cpp:1088-1089); image_sha256
is recorded metadata and never enters the accept/reject decision.

docs: production-friendly contributor docs + declutter root
Make the repo approachable for outside contributors and an IDE integrator:
- New contributor docs:
- docs/EXECUTION_MODEL.md — semi-technical tour of the static / native-overlay
/ interpreter execution model and how coverage gaps get plugged.
- docs/ARCHITECTURE.md — component-level view (recompiler, runtime, LLE+HLE
BIOS, overlay backend static->gcc->tcc, renderers, oracle model).
- docs/BUILDING.md — accurate dependency table, per-platform prereqs, build
steps, and the submodule + local-junction framework-linking setup.
- CONTRIBUTING.md — distilled core rules, verification expectations, PR flow.
- Declutter root: move ~14 internal dev-logs into docs/internal/ (history
preserved via rename) with an index README; repoint CLAUDE.md references.
- README: correct build recipe, LLE+HLE + overlay-backend summary, links to the
new docs.
- code_provider.c: update the stale backend comment to the real static->gcc->tcc
resolution (dead SLJIT.md reference removed).
- config_schema.md: drop the obsolete "once Phase A2/A3 ships --config" note.
