* docs(M-102): fix findings-index false-positive, release <version> bug, land parked site cleanup
Docs triage pass (docs/dev/notes/PROMPT-docs-triage-session.md).
- gen_findings_index.py: D194's row was silently bucketed FIXED (an open
design item) because it had no distinct status cell, so the generator's
fallback keyword search matched "fixed" somewhere inside 6,500 chars of
narrative -- the same misleading-index failure mode that cost a session
on D227 (see docs/dev/findings.md SS H "D227 -- M-98"/"M-99"). Gave D194
a real status cell. Also extended LEAD_RE/bucket() with 5 verdict tokens
already in use in the doc (ANALYZED, GUARDED, DIAGNOSTIC SHIPPED,
ROOT-CAUSED, NOT A BUG) and added a leading verdict word to 4 more rows
that had a status cell but no recognized token -- fixes all 10 rows the
generator previously bucketed "?" (D175 D174 D173 D220 D160 D133 D136
D156 D153, plus D194). findings-index.csv regenerated; --check passes;
diff reviewed, only these 10 rows moved.
- ci.yml: release-notes.md's <version> placeholders were never substituted
before `gh release create --notes-file`, so every published release body
(including the live v0.1.0 release) ships the literal text. Now sed'd to
the tag first.
- Landed docs/dev/notes/UNLANDED-docs-site-cleanup-steps3-5.{md,patch}
(parked M-101, never pushed, branch deleted): deletes the orphaned
docs/StructureGuide.md (0 tracked references), adds title/description
frontmatter to 5 published Pages docs, rewrites docs/index.md's stale
"Phase 2 of 4 / no audio yet / 19-of-21" status text to match the
current README. The 2 files whose hunks no longer applied via `git am`
(docs/index.md, docs/dev/agentic-development.md) were redone by hand
against current main.
- docs/BACKLOG.md (local, gitignored): retargeted a dead
docs/PORT-LEARNINGS.md reference to docs/porting-notes.md.
Larger triage items (findings.md monster-row convention, full
status-accuracy sweep, duplicate-defect clustering, dev-notes plan
triage, HANDOFF rotation policy) scoped but not started -- see
docs/dev/notes/FOLLOWUP-docs-triage-session.md (gitignored).

* docs/index.md: fix stale in-level-music claim before merge
This PR predates the M-102c/M-105 correction (already landed in the
README via PR #55): in-level music is NOT absent, it plays with some
tracks having wrong-sounding instruments / occasional garbling (D77
fixed, D230 filed for the residual). This branch's own rewritten Status
paragraph still said music 'doesn't yet' play -- fixing it to match
before merge so main doesn't briefly regress to a stale claim this
session already corrected elsewhere.
CMakeLists.txt already opt-in enables CMAKE_{C,CXX}_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=
ccache when found (b49907de); CI just never installed ccache or persisted
its cache dir across runs. Wires actions/cache + ccache install into both
linux-build and windows-build, keyed on CMakeLists.txt's hash. Game
sources are frozen, so this should give a near-total hit rate after the
first run on each job.
YAML-validated; the actual hit-rate payoff needs a real CI run (cold, then
warm) to confirm -- not verifiable locally.

Static/tooling slice of docs/dev/notes/AGENTIC-SPEEDUPS-PLAN.md — no build or
runtime environment needed to verify any of it.
- Step 6 / N7: add a VERIFY: line to the investigation-brief template
(docs/dev-process.md) and the CLAUDE.md dispatch-preflight checklist — the
brief must now name the exact probe/verify invocation that proves the task
done, or state that runtime verification is impossible here.
- Step 4 / N2: tools_pc/README.md — indexes the ~60 scripts with a
living vs artifact marker so closed-finding artifacts can be archived.
- Step 4 / R8: tools_pc/gen_findings_index.py -> docs/dev/findings-index.csv
(label, bucket, one_liner, status_raw) — grep-before-you-read aid for the
~200 KB finding log. Heuristic parser of the §F/§H tables.
- Step 4 / R9: tools_pc/gen_env_probes.py — re-greps live getenv("GE_*")
sites and reports NEW/GONE drift vs docs/dev/GE-ENV-PROBES.md (keeps the
curated prose, only checks the site map). Doc reconciled: 7 new probes
added, GE_D54 kept as a tombstone.
- CI: validate job now runs both generators with --check.
Step 1 / N1 (HANDOFF preflight) applied in the local-only docs/HANDOFF.md.
Step 2 (verify.sh) and the HANDOFF/HANDOFF-ARCHIVE trim are left for a
session with a build environment.
- tools_pc/bundle-linux.sh: package a Linux build (exe + README + licenses +
prepare-assets) as a .tar.gz. Mirrors bundle-win.sh's ROM / size guards and
prepare-assets assembly. No shared libs bundled — the generated README tells
the user to install SDL2 / zlib / libGL from their distro.
- tools_pc/dist/README.md.in: made OS-neutral via @PLATFORM@ / @EXE@ / @DEPS@ /
@LICENSE_EXTRA@ tokens; refreshed the known-issues list (dropped the stale
"ladders don't work" line — D177 fixed M-36; added black sky + missing HUD
weapon icon).
- .github/workflows/ci.yml: linux-build now packages + uploads the Linux
bundle; the release job attaches both platforms to the draft pre-release.
- .github/release-notes.md: rewritten for the two-platform NTSC-U alpha with
the prepare-assets step and current known issues.
Alpha scope: NTSC-U only, one-time prepare-assets step (Part A launcher and
Part B native converter from release-dropin-rom-plan.md remain follow-ups).

Drop `paths-ignore` from the `pull_request:` trigger. With it, a docs-only
PR never triggered the workflow, so the required `validate` / `windows-build`
checks stayed "expected" forever and the PR could not be merged without an
owner bypass (M-44 hit this on #14/#15).
The workflow now always runs on PRs; the `changes` job diffs the PR against
its base sha (mirroring the existing branch-push logic against
`github.event.before`) and, for a docs-only change, reports the build jobs
as skipped — which branch protection accepts as success.

- src/bondtypes.h's `#define inherits struct` makes the base an unnamed
tagged member and reads its fields directly. mingw32 GCC enables this via
implicit -fms-extensions; native GCC does not -> "'ObjectRecord' has no
member named 'type'". Add -fplan9-extensions (C only) for non-MinGW.
- Pin the CI job to ubuntu-24.04 + gcc-14 so the first Linux bring-up chases
real portability gaps, not old-GCC pedantry (dev toolchain is GCC 16).
validate only CMake-configures on Ubuntu; it never compiles, so GCC-on-Linux
strictness gaps (implicit declarations, -Wint-conversion, missing includes,
MinGW-only builtins) stay invisible until someone builds on a real Linux box.
Add linux-build: system GCC, `cmake --build` for ntsc-final. Green here means
"compiles + links on Linux", not a runtime claim (the port has never run on
Linux). Not wired as a required check yet.
Pairs with the romdata POSIX mmap patch on this branch (per docs/dev/LINUX-PORT.md).
The pull_request trigger already has paths-ignore (**.md, docs/**,
LICENSE, NOTICE), but push to main deliberately has none so tag builds
always run and the required check never hangs pending. A docs-only merge
to main therefore still ran a full ~15 min Windows build for nothing.
Add a lightweight 'changes' job (pure git diff against github.event.before,
no third-party action) that mirrors those globs. validate + windows-build
now gate on needs.changes.outputs.code == 'true'; the job forces true for
tags and for pull_request / workflow_dispatch, so only docs-only branch
pushes are skipped. Skipped required checks report green to branch
protection.
- tools_pc/bundle-win.sh: package a Windows build for distribution — exe +
MinGW/SDL2/zlib runtime DLLs + README + license texts, into
dist/goldeneye-pc-port-<ver>-win64/{,.zip,.zip.sha256}. Hard-fails if a
ROM image or an oversized blob lands in the bundle; verifies the DLL
closure with ldd.
- tools_pc/dist/README.md.in: the bundled README template (ROM-supply
instructions, run steps, controls, legal), @VERSION@-substituted.
- CI: build tag trigger (v*); windows-build now packages the bundle every
run and uploads it; new release job (tags only, contents: write scoped
to it) attaches the bundle to a DRAFT pre-release for a human to
smoke-test and publish.
- README: Download section + Legal reworded to cover pre-built binaries
(engine only, no game data, permissive runtime libs bundled with their
licenses).
- .gitignore: /dist/ (root bundle output; tools_pc/dist/ template stays
tracked).
Cutting a release: tag vX.Y.Z-alpha, push; CI builds + drafts the
pre-release; smoke-test with a ROM, then Publish.

- README: attract-mode stills + demo GIF as the hero row, status/warning
callouts, metrics table, "Contents" index, doc-index table; simplified
the two-agent workflow diagram (LR -> TD, fewer edges) for GitHub web
- Table-of-contents indexes added to internals.md, porting-notes.md,
agentic-development.md, AUDIO-PLAN.md
- CI: add Windows/MSYS2 build job, minimal token (contents: read),
persist-credentials: false, concurrency group; run on main + master.
validate job regenerates the US ROM-asset symbol file only and configures
ntsc-final (PAL/JP need a region ROM; no ROM is used in CI)
- .github: SECURITY.md, issue forms + chooser config, PR template,
labels.yml, dependabot (Actions, monthly)
- Do not track the proprietary SGI IRIX IDO toolchain or SGIImageViewer.exe;
document in SetupGuide.md / building.md how to obtain IDO for N64 ROM
builds (the PC port does not need it)
- Stop tracking two committed *.pyc files; drop stale screenshots and a
redundant .gitignore line; misc doc cross-reference fixes
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GULf6knbsqfsnW39tMr9WT
- README: "not playable yet" callout under the screenshots (no audio,
broken front-end models/text, expect crashes past the level intro).
- README/building.md/ci.yml: platform testing is Windows-only. The Linux
build is provided but has had zero functional testing at runtime; the
CI job is a CMake-configure smoke test, not a Linux-support claim.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01UpTM1AcBRJuTetoZNcCD5V
- README, LICENSE (MIT for the port layer), NOTICE, CONTRIBUTING.
- Restructure docs: internals.md, porting-notes.md, dev-process.md +
dev/agentic-development.md (the research write-up), dev/ (raw record).
- Replace decomp status-badge CI with a PC-port validate workflow.
- Remove session/agent scaffolding and stale planning docs from the tree.
- Add .gitattributes (normalize line endings to LF); add screenshots.
The pre-2026-08 history is the GoldenEye 007 decompilation by Larry Ficken
(KholdFuzion) and contributors, preserved unchanged. The PC-port work from
2026-08-17 on is mine.
