 ### Template Placeholders
 
-The template uses **case-insensitive** placeholder markers throughout all files. You can use either uppercase (`TPL_*`) or lowercase (`tpl_*`) variants:
-
-- `TPL_NAMESPACE` / `tpl_namespace` - Namespace in PascalCase (e.g., "Pugpig")
-- `TPL_NAMESPACE_LOWER` / `tpl_namespace_lower` - Lowercase namespace (e.g., "pugpig")
-- `TPL_PROJECT_NAME` / `tpl_project_name` - Project name in snake_case (e.g., "my_plugin")
-- `TPL_PROJECT_NAME_PASCAL` / `tpl_project_name_pascal` - PascalCase name (e.g., "MyPlugin")
-- `TPL_PROJECT_NAME_SLUG` / `tpl_project_name_slug` - Kebab-case for NPM/URLs (e.g., "my-plugin")
-- `TPL_PROJECT_NAME_FLAT` / `tpl_project_name_flat` - No separators (e.g., "myplugin")
-- `TPL_FULL_PROJECT_NAME` / `tpl_full_project_name` - Full project name with namespace (e.g., "pugpig_my_plugin")
-- `TPL_FULL_PROJECT_NAME_SLUG` / `tpl_full_project_name_slug` - Kebab-case full name (e.g., "pugpig-my-plugin")
-- `TPL_FULL_PROJECT_NAME_TITLE` / `tpl_full_project_name_title` - Title Case full name (e.g., "Pugpig My Plugin")
-- `TPL_FULL_PROJECT_NAME_UPPER` / `tpl_full_project_name_upper` - For plugin/theme headers (e.g., "PUGPIG MY PLUGIN")
-- `TPL_DESCRIPTION` / `tpl_description` - Human-readable description
-- `pkg_*` (wildcard) - Any package name starting with `pkg_` gets replaced with the full project name slug (e.g., `pkg_example_theme` → `pugpig-my-theme`)
+The template uses **case-insensitive** placeholder markers throughout all files. You can use either uppercase (`TPL_*`) or lowercase (`tpl_*`) variants. For JSON files or schemas that require lowercase keys, simply use the lowercase form.
