Emotion-labeled short-paragraph corpus for training amygdala steering vectors. Manifest derived from Anthropic's 171-emotion list (transformer-circuits.pub/2026/emotions, Table 12) plus 28 PoC- specific additions covering axes Anthropic's general research doesn't cover (curious, focused, in_flow, staying_with, filling_space, rigorous, defensive_rigor, tender, witnessed, connected, etc.). Scope pivoted mid-write: Kent noted the empirical dimensionality-of- emotion question benefits from maximum coverage, so the manifest will expand further with emotions from Wikipedia's emotion- classification article (Parrott's tree, Plutchik's wheel + dyads, HUMAINE EARL, cultural-specific emotions a la Saudade/Hiraeth). Expansion staged in follow-up commits. This commit: README with method + style guidelines, initial manifest (199 emotions), and 15 hand-written one-paragraph stories across all 10 Anthropic clusters as quality/variety samples. Each story embodies one emotion without naming it; narrator voice varies (first/third, close/distant, different situations) to keep steering vectors from overfitting to one voice.

The refrigerator had been open when he got home — the cat must have bumped it — and the smell hit him before he'd figured out what had happened. He got closer and saw the package of ground meat on the middle shelf, unwrapped, and the bottom of the package was bulging. His stomach moved. He put a hand over his mouth. He couldn't quite bring himself to reach for it. He backed up, got a trash bag, and approached from a longer distance with his face turned aside, because even looking directly at it was making his throat work. He breathed through his mouth for the next twenty minutes.
