# Project Regeneration

Mechanical: regenerate `_kernel/now.json` for all walnuts. No approval needed -- this is computation from existing sources.

## Process

```bash
# Find world root
WORLD="${ALIVE_WORLD_ROOT:-$HOME/world}"

# Run projection for all walnuts
python3 "$WORLD/.alive/scripts/project.py" --all

# Regenerate world index
python3 "$WORLD/.alive/scripts/generate-index.py"
```

## Output

Report only if errors occurred. Otherwise silent (`[SILENT]`).

```
[SILENT]
Projections regenerated for [N] walnuts. No errors.
```

If errors:
```
Projection errors:
  [walnut]: [error message]
  [walnut]: [error message]

[N] walnuts projected successfully, [M] errors.
```

## Autonomy

This cron is fully autonomous. It reads existing source files (log.md, bundle manifests, tasks.json) and computes now.json. No decisions, no writes to human-authored files.
