The published install command in the README — npx skills add nutlope/hallmark — was failing for users because the skills CLI looks for SKILL.md at the repo root, not at skill/SKILL.md where Hallmark kept it. The clone succeeded but the CLI reported "No skills found." Manual cp was the only working install path. Flattened the layout: - skill/SKILL.md → SKILL.md - skill/references/ → references/ - (skill/ directory removed; was empty after moves) git mv preserved rename history for all 76+ files (SKILL.md + 28 reference files + 21 macrostructures + 46 components + 7 verb/genre subfolders). Updated every cross-reference (36 occurrences across 9 files): - README.md — 4 links (SKILL.md + references/ + the install snippet still reads the same) - ROADMAP.md — 4 links to reference files - package.json — "files" field + "skill" entry/references paths - site/js/main.js — 3 source comments - references/design-md.md — one broken link (was pointing skill/references/export-formats.md from inside references/ — now just export-formats.md as a sibling) - site/_tests/verbs/study/notes.md, diagnosis.md and verbs/audit/audit-report.md, custom/README.md — test-artifact relative paths shortened by one segment (e.g. ../../../skill/SKILL.md → ../../../SKILL.md) No skill content changes. After this lands, 'npx skills add nutlope/hallmark' should clone + install correctly without any manual cp fallback.

07 · Manifesto
Polemical large type. Declaration energy. The page tells the reader what to believe before it tells them what to buy. Often political-poster aesthetic.
- Heading: all-caps display tilted slightly (
-2°to-4°), or stacked colour-block highlights on the verb. - Body: short paragraphs each holding one assertion, large enough to read across the room.
- Divider: bleed-colour blocks between sections; no hairlines.
- Button: oversized solid block, accent colour, set far below the fold.
- Image: none, or a single high-contrast B&W photograph used as a section bleed.
- Reveal: horizontal sweep on section entry.
Reach for it for brand repositioning announcements, mission-led indie products, design-studio beliefs pages.
Avoid for transactional pages. Manifesto sells agreement, not action.
Reference: Linear's positioning pages, agency rebrand sites, political campaign landing pages.
Sample opening lines (imitate the specificity — manifestos commit, they don't hedge):
"WE ARE A STUDIO. WE ARE NOT A PLATFORM." — Meridian (test 04) — defines by refusal, all caps, a single accent word "We design products that last twelve years. We do not design products that need replacing every two." — concrete number, paired declaration "Lightness above weightiness, elevate everyone you encounter." — craigmod.com — one-line principle, no explanation needed
