Merge main into fix/plugin-path-structure

Brings in the jet-black + atomic-tangerine palette repaint
(ba3062c), the consultant-special 2×2 variant, the Jobs-minimal
axis simplification (e13c993), the type-quadrant.md rule
codification (4feb760), and the Codex plugin wrapper from
PR #3 (7326c4e).

Conflict resolutions:

- skills/diagram-design/SKILL.md (add/add): keep the full 400-line
  SKILL.md from this PR. PR #3's 13-line Codex wrapper becomes
  unnecessary — with the real SKILL.md at skills/diagram-design/,
  the Codex plugin's "skills": "./skills/" finds the full file
  directly, no redirect needed.

- README.md (content): keep the new skills/diagram-design/... link
  targets from this PR, combined with the "14 diagrams" count and
  #eb6c36 accent from the repaint work on main.

- example-quadrant-consultant.html: moved to the new
  skills/diagram-design/assets/ location with its Jobs-minimal
  axis labels intact.

Also fixed the clone-install instructions to match the new
layout: clone the repo, then symlink the inner skills/diagram-design/
directory into ~/.claude/skills/diagram-design. The old instructions
(clone the repo root directly into the skills dir) would break with
this structure.

# Style Guide
**The single source of truth for colors, typography, and tokens.** Every diagram draws from this — not from hex values inlined in other reference files. If you want to change the visual skin of diagram-design, change this file.

Default skin is a neutral editorial palette — warm stone paper, deep charcoal ink, rust accent. It's designed to look good out of the box for any open-source user without matching any specific brand. Swap these values (or run [`onboarding.md`](onboarding.md)) and every new diagram inherits the new skin without touching any type-specific logic.

The `soft`, `rule`, and `link` tokens are derived (lighter slate, ink-at-opacity, and a saturated variant in the blue-slate hue family) to cover roles the brand palette doesn't name directly.

### Inversion rule (light → dark)
@@ -101,4 +103,5 @@ Three options:
- **No rainbow palette**: if your brand ships 8 colors, pick 3 (paper, ink, accent). The rest become `muted` variants.
- **Serif + sans + mono**: three families, not more. If brand typography is all sans, keep Instrument Serif for `title` and `callout` anyway — the contrast is load-bearing.
- **Paper is warm-neutral, not pure white**: pure white turns the design sterile. Pick a cream, bone, or light grey with a hint of warmth.
- **Dot pattern survives**: the 22×22 dot pattern on the diagram background needs to sit at ~10% opacity of `ink` on `paper` — verify it's visible but quiet after a skin change.
- **Dot pattern is optional, not default**: the 22×22 dot pattern is an opt-in "dotted paper" variant (good for long-form editorial hero diagrams). The default background is a clean `paper` fill, no pattern. When the pattern is enabled, it should sit at ~10% opacity of `ink` on `paper` — visible but quiet.
- **Container is clean by default**: the diagram sits directly on the page paper, no secondary container background or border. A framed variant (`paper-2` bg + `rule` border + 8px radius + padding) is available as an opt-in for card-heavy layouts, but don't reach for it by default — the extra chrome fights the figure.
