Summary

Adds a compelling hook and value proposition paragraph to the README opening.

Before: Generic one-liner — 'A composable, versioned library of prompt templates.'

After: Problem-framing hook + value prop:

  • Hook: 'Agentic prompts are the most important code you're not engineering.'
  • Problem: Ad hoc prompts are copy-pasted, untested, inconsistent, and impossible to improve systematically.
  • Value prop: PromptKit applies the same engineering rigor you use for software (modularity, reuse, testing, code review) to the prompts that drive your AI workflows.

The original subtitle is preserved above the new paragraphs.

Add a compelling hook and value prop paragraph to the README opening:
- Hook: 'Agentic prompts are the most important code you're not engineering'
- Problem: ad hoc prompts are copy-pasted, untested, inconsistent
- Value prop: PromptKit applies software engineering rigor (modularity,
  reuse, testing, code review) to prompts
