+# 🔒 PIXEL ART FIX PROTOCOL - Protect Good Assets
+
+**Purpose:** Identify and replace ONLY pixelated images, protect already-smooth Style 32 assets.
+
+---
+
+## ✅ PROTECTED ASSETS (DO NOT TOUCH)
+
+**These are LOCKED - already smooth Style 32:**
+
+### **Main Characters:**
+- ✅ `/references/main_characters/ana/master_reference_nobg.png` - **GOLD STANDARD**
+- ✅ `/references/main_characters/ana/master_reference.png` - **GOLD STANDARD**
+
+### **Test Assets:**
+- ✅ `/references/BIOME_CROP_TEST_SHEET.png` - **SMOOTH QUALITY CONFIRMED**
+
+### **Any asset USER confirms is smooth:**
+- User will specify which assets are already good
+- These remain untouched
+
+---
+
+## 🔴 IDENTIFY PIXELATED ASSETS (Need Regeneration)
+
+**Process:**
+1. User identifies which portraits/sprites are pixelated
+2. Create list of files needing regeneration
+3. Regenerate ONLY those files
+4. Replace old pixelated versions
+
+---
+
+## 📋 REGENERATION CHECKLIST
+
+**For EACH pixelated asset identified:**
+
+### **Step 1: Verify Old File Exists**
+```bash
+ls -la references/npcs/[npc_name]/master_reference.png
+```
+
+### **Step 2: View Original (Note Details)**
+- Character name
+- Features (hair, clothes, piercings)
+- Pose/angle
+
+### **Step 3: Generate Smooth Replacement**
+**Prompt Template:**
+```
+[Character Name] portrait. EXACT Style 32 matching Ana reference quality:
+SMOOTH vector-style lines (NOT pixel art),
+5px thick black outlines #000000,
+anti-aliased curves,
+high-resolution 256x256px rendering,
+flat cel shading,
+NO pixelation, NO stair-stepping, NO chunky pixels,
+[Character specific features: hair color, outfit, etc.],
+Film-quality polish, Cult of the Lamb aesthetic,
+Transparent background.
+```
+
+### **Step 4: Verify Quality**
+- [ ] Smooth lines (no stair-stepping)
+- [ ] 5px black outlines
+- [ ] Matches Ana's smoothness level
+- [ ] High resolution
+- [ ] Vibrant colors
+
+### **Step 5: Replace Old File**
+```bash
+# Backup old (optional)
+mv references/npcs/[npc]/master_reference.png references/npcs/[npc]/master_reference_OLD_PIXELATED.png
+
+# Copy new smooth version
+cp ~/.gemini/.../[new_smooth_file].png references/npcs/[npc]/master_reference.png
+```
+
+### **Step 6: Update Manifest**
+```bash
+python3 scripts/generate_asset_manifest.py
+git add -A
+git commit -m "Fixed pixelated [NPC name] portrait - replaced with smooth Style 32 version"
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 BATCH REPLACEMENT WORKFLOW
+
+### **Phase 1: Identification**
+**USER PROVIDES LIST of pixelated assets:**
+```
+Example:
+- ivan_kovac: PIXELATED ❌
+- kustos: PIXELATED ❌
+- tehnik: PIXELATED ❌
+- pek: SMOOTH ✅ (keep)
+- sivilja: SMOOTH ✅ (keep)
+```
+
+### **Phase 2: Regeneration (Only Pixelated)**
+For each PIXELATED asset:
+1. View original
+2. Generate smooth replacement
+3. Verify quality
+4. Replace file
+5. Commit change
+
+### **Phase 3: Confirmation**
+```
+Report to user:
+"Regenerated [X] pixelated portraits:
+- [NPC 1]: FIXED ✅
+- [NPC 2]: FIXED ✅
+- [NPC 3]: FIXED ✅
+
+Protected [Y] already-smooth assets:
+- Ana: PROTECTED ✅
+- [Other smooth NPCs]: PROTECTED ✅
+
+All pixelated images are now replaced with smooth Style 32 versions."
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🚫 WHAT NOT TO DO
+
+**NEVER:**
+- ❌ Regenerate Ana's smooth reference (it's the gold standard)
+- ❌ Regenerate test sheet (already smooth)
+- ❌ Blindly regenerate everything without checking
+- ❌ Replace smooth assets with new versions (keep originals)
+- ❌ Generate without viewing original first
+
+**ALWAYS:**
+- ✅ Ask user which assets are pixelated
+- ✅ Protect confirmed smooth assets
+- ✅ Only regenerate confirmed pixelated ones
+- ✅ Verify smoothness before replacing
+- ✅ Keep backups of old files (optional)
+
+---
+
+## 📋 CURRENT STATUS
+
+**Awaiting USER input:**
+- Which NPCs are pixelated? (need regeneration)
+- Which NPCs are already smooth? (protect)
+- Which main characters need fixing? (Kai, Gronk?)
+
+**Once USER provides list:**
+- Execute batch regeneration ONLY for pixelated assets
+- Protect all smooth assets
+- Confirm completion
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 QUALITY STANDARD
+
+**Every regenerated asset must match:**
+- Ana's smoothness level (GOLD STANDARD)
+- Test sheet quality (CONFIRMED SMOOTH)
+- 5px outlines, no pixelation
+- Film-quality polish
+
+**If regenerated asset is still pixelated:**
+- Auto-reroll (max 3 attempts)
+- Report to user if can't achieve smoothness
+
+---
+
+**AWAITING USER INPUT: Please specify which NPCs/characters are pixelated and need fixing.**
