## Color Palette
A teal ramp from light to dark,
plus two neutral tones for the shell chrome.
A teal ramp of 7 stops from light to dark,
plus two neutral tones for the shell chrome,
plus 5 accent hues with 2 shades each for the terminal ANSI colors.
All colors except the two neutrals can be verified
with [`derive-palette.py`](./derive-palette.py)
to be derived from GNOME's "teal" accent alone.
The ramp is uniform in perceived lightness (i.e., OKLCH),
with the accent centered by arithmetic:
In dark mode it reads light-to-dark (e.g., text on dark surfaces),
in light mode dark-to-light.
Translucent colors are always alpha-variants of a stop,
used for `forge`'s tile previews and tab decorations.
