[reacher-z]

A restrained pass over the README: the header now matches WebsiteBench, and reference material moves into docs/ so the README stays focused on what ClawBench is, how to run it, and the current results. Every moved section leaves a sentence in the README that names its new page.

Rendered branch: https://github.com/TIGER-AI-Lab/ClawBench/blob/docs/readme-restyle/README.md

Changes in the README

Before	After
Gradient hero banner (assets/hero-*.svg)	Typeset wordmark and tagline in EB Garamond, with light and dark variants
9 shields.io badges in mixed colours, 2 more below, 37 "Featured" badges folded underneath	Four badges in the palette: Project Page, Paper, Leaderboard, Dataset; one line points to docs/featured.md
Repeated H1, bold centred intro, logo at 320 px from a 2 MB PNG	One plain intro paragraph; logo at 160 px on the right, from a 320 px, 30 KB JPEG copy
Font Awesome icons in every heading	Plain headings
Eight news items with emoji	The three most recent; docs/news.md holds all of them
Awesome Works as emoji-led paragraphs	Same works, same order, as a plain list; the nine older entries stay folded
Results: five tables	The V2 Hermes leaderboard and the overall paper results (V1, six models), then a pointer to docs/results.md
Reproduction: two paths, pass criterion	One paragraph and the one-shot clawbench-reproduce command, then a pointer to docs/reproduce.md
Comparison table with nine benchmarks	The positioning paragraph, then a pointer to docs/comparison.md
Community: large for-the-badge buttons; "Star this repo" button	Three text links; the star button is removed

Moved to docs/

New page	Content	Pointer in the README
docs/results.md	V2 under OpenClaw, V1 under the Hermes harness, the per-category breakdown of the paper results, V1 task categories	Results
docs/reproduce.md	Path A, Path B, the one-shot command, and the pass criterion	Reproduce the leaderboard
docs/comparison.md	The comparison with WebArena, GAIA, Mind2Web and others	How ClawBench compares
docs/featured.md	The 37 curated lists, Paper of the Day, DeepWiki	Header, below the sister-project line

docs/README.md links the new pages. docs/cli.md, docs/faq.md and docs/harbor.md now point to reproduce.md directly. Every existing README anchor (#reproduce-the-leaderboard, #awesome-works-using-clawbench, #news, #citation and the legacy quick-start anchors) is kept, so old links still land.

Design notes

• Palette: D8E2DC, FFE5D9, FFCAD4, F4ACB7, 9D8189. White small text on 9D8189 is about 3.5:1, so the badge body is one step darker (7A6369, about 5.5:1); the four pastels mark the icon cells.
• The wordmark, tagline and badge text are EB Garamond glyph outlines. GitHub shows repository SVGs through <img>, which cannot load web fonts. No font file is committed; the SIL Open Font License permits outlining.
• The tagline uses GitHub's own text colours (#1f2328 light, #f0f6fc dark), so it reads like the surrounding text in either theme.

Not changed

• docs/README.zh-CN.md still uses the old header; only its citation changed. The header needs a matching pass by someone who maintains the Chinese text. The hero SVGs and heading icons stay in assets/ because that page uses them.
• assets/clawbench_logo.png and assets/social-card.png are unchanged.

Citation

The BibTeX in the README and in docs/README.zh-CN.md now cites the EMNLP 2026 Findings paper (@inproceedings{zhang2026clawbench, ...}, pages 9386–9408) instead of the arXiv preprint.

Verification

• python scripts/ci/check_markdown_links.py: all 324 repo-relative Markdown links resolve.
• Rendered through GitHub's Markdown API in light and dark. The <picture> theme switching was confirmed on github.com with the same structure in TIGER-AI-Lab/WebsiteBench.
• No Python changes; ruff and pyright are unaffected.
