Requested directly: "can we make activity orange". The locked eight palette had already run out at six legible text colours (Watch's blue was the last one, and it's already a contrast exception); a dithered swatch alone read as unfinished, and dithering the word itself rendered as illegible static — tried and reverted this session. --tt-orange (#ff8000) is defined in base.css right after the locked eight, clearly marked as a deliberate, acknowledged one-off exception to "eight colours, no ninth" rather than a secretly-smuggled-in tint. Same flat text+swatch treatment as every other fastext key. Updated CLAUDE.md's discipline 1 and DESIGN.md's Locked Eight Rule to name the exception explicitly, so it reads as a documented decision next time someone audits the palette, not a bug.
