Cap — decoded design system
Cap's design system, decoded live by Mozaika: measured color roles, type scale, buttons with real hover/focus states, motion and the brand's own tokens.
This is a static, crawlable rendering for search & AI engines. The interactive version — filters, live decode console, copy & export — is at https://mozaika.design/decode/cap.so.
Decoded design system
Cap's decoded design system: background #F2F2F2, text #000000, accent #3B82F6, link #838383, primary #2563EB; type scale h1 36px / h2 36px / body 18px; 4px spacing base; 8px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #2563EB — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.
Color roles

Using these colors
- Action color
#2563EB— the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills. primary,button_bgare all#2563EB— one role, not several (the action color).- accent
#3B82F6— accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page. - link
#838383— reads as a neutral UI color, not a link accent — verify against the reference (action = #2563EB). - secondary
#8B5CF6— optional secondary accent — LOW decode confidence; use rarely (a status color or a single decorative moment) or omit it entirely. Prefer one accent unless the reference clearly shows two.

Hover/focus states, shadows and motion timings above are measured from the live page — match them exactly, don't re-guess them.
