Map source strength, provenance quality, citation depth, and reliability bands into readable visual categories.
Color must support evidence review, not fake certainty.Color is not decoration. Color is navigation for intelligence.
A read-only semantic color registry that defines how TheoB will eventually use color to represent confidence, conflict, source quality, capsule type, rights, freshness, cacao intelligence, natural brand language, and escalation state.
Every TheoB pathway can move through Past, Present, and Future without losing context.
Read current signals, conditions, and live context.
Voice ready
Infinite shades. One disciplined meaning system.
Visual Semantics Color Intelligence Registry prepares TheoB to use color as a serious intelligence layer: source quality, confidence, conflict, capsule type, rights, freshness, cacao intelligence, natural brand language, and escalation. No live color routing yet. Good — random color is just confusion wearing perfume.
Visual Semantics Color Intelligence Registry is active as a non-destructive registry layer. TheoB can define semantic color families, applications, rules, future token shape, and registry receipt shape, but it cannot route live data by color, store color tokens, mutate UI palettes, generate color semantic maps, activate capsule colors, validate accessibility automatically, or mutate production yet.
Represent low, medium, high, and review-required confidence with accessible gradients.
Confidence colors must never replace citations.Represent none, minor, moderate, strong, and critical conflict states across Discovery and Capsules.
Conflict colors must preserve nuance, not panic theater.Assign semantic color families to text, image, diagram, schematic, signal, entity, color-semantics, and composite capsules.
Capsule color should help navigation, not become visual confetti.Differentiate text, image, diagram, schematic, CAD, map, dataset, signal, and composite modality boundaries.
Color boundaries must prevent modality blending.Represent metadata-only, review-required, display-allowed, full-storage-allowed, redacted-safe, and redaction-required states.
Rights color cannot accidentally expose restricted content.Represent fresh, aging, stale, historic, unknown-date, and time-sensitive intelligence.
Old intelligence should not look current.Create a natural color logic for cacao agriculture, fermentation, ceremony, products, regions, beauty, sustainability, and cultural context.
Cacao colors must respect cultural, ecological, scientific, and ceremonial meaning.Preserve natural brand language through cacao, earth, cream, botanical, clay, gold, water, leaf, and mineral-inspired tones.
Brand color systems need restraint. Luxury is not a rainbow having a meeting.Represent safe, watch, review, blocked, critical, recovery, and founder-override states.
Risk colors must remain accessible and not over-alarm users.Apply semantic colors to source authority, freshness, citation depth, independence, and review state.

Pretty colors without meaning are decoration, not intelligence.Color systems must preserve contrast, readable labels, non-color indicators, and accessible states.
Never make color the only carrier of meaning.TheoB should use natural tones while preserving rigorous category separation and meaning.
Earthy does not mean muddy.Semantic color can guide attention but cannot replace citations, source trails, scores, or conflict maps.
A green badge is not evidence.Color must preserve uncertainty, review-required states, and unresolved conflict.
Do not paint over contradiction.Restricted, redacted, metadata-only, or review-required content must have clear visual boundaries.
Color systems must not leak sensitive or restricted context.This registry defines color intelligence readiness only and does not route live data, recolor UI, or mutate production.
No live routing, no design generation, no production mutation.Activating official brand-wide color semantics requires founder approval.
Brand color is identity infrastructure.
