I don't see any error when platform is published on npm w/o subfolder. I tested this a few weeks ago using my own temporary package (https://www.npmjs.org/package/cordova-windows-test) and with 3.6.0 (https://www.npmjs.org/package/cordova-windows/3.6.0) - see output below.
Looks like the following issue has been addressed as well, will resolve after additional tests for non-Windows platforms CB-7031 --usenpm option should place downloaded package to util.libDirectory C:\temp\win81 λ cordova-dev create npmTest Creating a new cordova project with name "HelloCordova" and id "io.cordova.hellocordova" at location "C:\temp\win81\npmTest" C:\temp\win81 λ cd npmTest\ C:\temp\win81\npmTest λ cordova-dev platform add windows npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/cordova-windows/3.6.0 npm http 200 https://registry.npmjs.org/cordova-windows/3.6.0 npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/cordova-windows/-/cordova-windows-3.6.0.tgz npm http 200 https://registry.npmjs.org/cordova-windows/-/cordova-windows-3.6.0.tgz Creating windows project...
