| surface | `#1C1C1C` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#7C3AED` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `primary`, `accent`, `button_bg` are all `#7C3AED` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#7C3AED` — 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** `#A78BFA` — inline text links and link-styled controls.
- **secondary** `#8A5CF5` — 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.
