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.

He had called her the wrong name. In front of her sister. Her sister had heard it and now was very pointedly pretending not to have heard it. He could feel his own face doing the thing his face did, the slow careful heat rising along his jaw. He could hear the sentence he'd just said still hanging in the room. He tried a small laugh and it came out wrong. Everyone was being very kind about it, which was worse. He would think about this moment tonight at 2am. He would think about it again next Wednesday. It had already moved into long-term storage.
