Tokens
Letterboxd's decoded design system: background #14181C, text #ECECEE, accent #00AC1C, link #99AABB, primary #445566; type scale h1 24px / h2 36px / body 12px; 4px spacing base; 3px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #00AC1C — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Using these colors
- Action color
#00AC1C— the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills. accent,button_bgare all#00AC1C— one role, not several (the action color).- accent
#00AC1C— THE accent / action color — interactive & must-notice only (buttons, links, focus, one key highlight); never large fills or backgrounds. Scarcity is what makes it read as designed. - primary
#445566— a brand color — but the call-to-action uses #00AC1C, not this. - link
#99AABB— reads as a neutral UI color, not a link accent — verify against the reference (action = #00AC1C). - secondary
#667788— 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.
