Lithic issues cards in stone-cut type: ABC Monument Grotesk at 64px/500 for 'Programmable card issuing and money movement', 16px body, and a restrained black-white-accent palette. API snippets and card renders alternate with compliance badges — payments infrastructure that borrows its name from stone and sets its type to match.

Tokens

Lithic's decoded design system: background #FFFFFF, text #0A0A0B, accent #FF6600, link #EBFEF6, primary #FF6600; type scale h1 64px / h2 32px / body 16px; 4px spacing base; 16px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #FF6600 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Role	Value
bg	`#FFFFFF`
surface	`#F0F0F0`
border	`#DADADA`
text	`#0A0A0B`
text_muted	`#676767`
primary	`#FF6600`
accent	`#FF6600`
link	`#EBFEF6`
secondary	`#5C2999`
button_bg	`#FF6600`
button_text	`#FFFFFF`

Using these colors

Action color #FF6600 — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
primary, accent, button_bg are all #FF6600 — one role, not several (the action color).
accent #FF6600 — 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.
link #EBFEF6 — fails contrast on the background (~1.0:1) — this is a dark UI color, NOT a readable link; use the text or action color for links (verify against the reference).
secondary #5C2999 — 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.
