Nice! Can you speak to your process? How much structure did you give the agent? Did you have to "discover" the right way to do the port? Perhaps you just asked Claude, and then iterated? How do you feel about the final architecture/layout of the code, and would you approach a similar project in a new way given what you've learned?

You said in another comment:

> Then, i spent some time in building a harness and collect telemetry data in Mesen. Once, i had that: i just played the game in the emulator and asked Claude Opus 5.5 to use this as verification.

Can you comment on how this verification process worked?

You'll have to forgive me for not trying to answer these questions myself by investigating the code/git history, but... I hope you understand.

Actually, I am peeking around the code a bit and it's a bit disappointing, but it's what I should have expected having tried a project like this myself with a Game Boy game. I would like to see what an AI-produced semantic (?) rewrite of a retro game would look like. That is, what a port/rewrite that wasn't so faithful/wedded to the original ROM layout or platform architecture. For example, the agent (and you, presumably) was satisfied with writing a sort of RP2C02 emulator facade instead of doing the hard work of translating the bytes into platform-agnostic graphics rendering code. So now any customization/extensions you write to the game are fundamentally constrained to the abstractions of a specific chip from the 80s.
