Protocolbot d19a75ace4 fix: rename seed files and IDs to match cleaned titles
All 100 seed YAML files now have:
- Filenames that match their id field
- IDs that are slugs of their titles
- No cultural identifiers in titles or IDs

70 files renamed. e.g. quaker-meeting-for-worship.yaml -> meeting-for-worship.yaml,
moroccan-jmaa-village.yaml -> jmaa-village-assembly.yaml,
japanese-hansei.yaml -> hansei-reflection.yaml

title: Community Kitchen Rotation
description: >-
A mutual aid practice in which members take turns cooking for the whole
group, sharing labour and food, and creating regular time together.
Found in many cultural traditions, including Sikh langar, Jewish
community kitchens, and contemporary mutual aid networks.

steps:
- headline: Establish the rotation
description: >-
The group agrees on a regular meal — weekly or monthly — and a
rotation of who cooks for each one. The burden and the gift rotate.
- headline: Cook for all
description: >-
The cook for that meal prepares food for the whole group, accounting
for dietary needs. The meal is free to those who come.
- headline: Eat together
description: >-
The group gathers, shares the meal, and eats together. The cook is
released from other tasks for that gathering.
- headline: Clean together
description: >-
After the meal, those who ate clean up alongside or instead of the
cook, so the labour does not all fall on one.
- headline: Acknowledge and rotate
description: >-
The cook is thanked; the next cook is named. The rotation continues,
keeping the gift circulating.
outcome: >-
The group shares food and time regularly, with the labour of cooking
distributed rather than concentrated on a few.
practice: >-
The rotation is the heart. If the same people always cook, it becomes
service, not mutual aid. Shared cleanup is as important as shared food.
