# _regen.py — redraw a batch of sprites at real pixel-art resolution, end to end.

# Per batch it: builds a reference sheet from the sprites in the repo, asks the generator to redraw
# them at HIGH art resolution (the style block below is the whole point — the previous prompts asked
# for "big chunky pixel blocks", which is a specification for coarse art), slices with _fine.py,
# colour-matches each frame onto what it replaces, and installs — but only if the sheet passes its
# checks: right number of frames, nothing touching a canvas edge (that is what clipped z_f1), and a
# real gain in inner-edge density (the number that tracks "is the drawing actually finer").
#
# Failures leave the sprites alone and print why, so a batch can just be re-run.
