 ## 1. The ten rules
 
 1. **Compose, do not invent.** A page is the page skeleton plus kit sections plus your words. Look in `demo/` and
    `docs/components.md` first. A new class is a last resort (section 9).
-2. **White canvas, ink actions, one accent.** The background is white (`--gw-bg`). The thing you click is near-black
-   (`.gw-btn`). The accent colour is for links, focus, the active item, the 8px label square and a chart line. **The
-   accent is never a button fill and never body text.**
-3. **Actions are rectangles, chips are pills.** Buttons: radius 8px, 40px tall, sentence case, 14px/600. Chips,
-   toggles, badges: fully rounded. Cards: radius 12px (16px for a large panel). No other radii.
+2. **White canvas, one action colour, one accent.** The background is white (`--gw-bg`). The thing you click
+   (`.gw-btn`) is near-black ink, or the brand's accent when the site chose the `accent` action profile
+   (`data-gw-action="accent"` on `<html>`, section 7): one colour for every primary button of the site, never chosen
+   per button. Why the choice (0.3.0): the site and the product speak one language, and GemPages' product clicks in
+   blue while GemBoss's clicks in ink. Otherwise the accent is for links, focus, the active item, the 8px label
+   square and a chart line. **The accent is never body text, never words in a heading, never a section band, and
+   never a fill you set yourself.**
+3. **Actions are rectangles, chips are pills.** Buttons: 40px tall, sentence case, 14px/600, the action radius of the
+   site's profile (8px; 12px in `soft`). Chips, toggles, badges: fully rounded. Cards: the card radius (12px; 20px in
+   `soft`), large panels the panel radius (16px; 24px). No other radii: the site picks its profile once
+   (`data-gw-radius`), components follow.
 4. **A card sits.** A card (`.gw-card`, a plan) is a white box with a 1px `--gw-line` border and the resting shadow
    `--gw-shadow`, the same as the GemBoss dashboard. It never lifts on hover. To separate anything else, use space or a
    hairline before a shadow. The only shadows are `--gw-shadow` (rest), `--gw-shadow-sm` and `--gw-shadow-raised`

+Brand profiles: three knobs so that another GemCommerce brand (GemPages first, Gemians later) can use the kit and
+still look like itself. Each one is a named profile chosen once for the site, never a free value. Markup that worked
+in 0.2.0 still works, and a page without the new attributes looks exactly as before (ink buttons, tight corners, the
+flat header: the demo is pixel-identical to 0.2.0 at 390 and 1366px, light and dark).
+
+Closes #61
+
+- Action colour: `data-gw-action="accent"` on `<html>` fills the primary `.gw-btn` with the brand's accent
+  (`--gw-on-accent` words, `--gw-accent-strong` on hover and press, the `-dark` family in dark mode and night bands).
+  The default is `ink`. No button shadow. The build fails when the kit's own colours put the button's words below
+  4.5:1, light or dark, and `check` does the same with a brand's colours (`action-contrast`).
+- Radius profiles: `data-gw-radius="soft"` on `<html>` gives 12 / 20 / 24 (action, card, panel) and 24 for the mega
+  menu; the default `tight` keeps 8 / 12 / 16 and 20. Every component reads `--gw-radius-action|card|panel|popover`;
+  no component keeps a radius of its own.
+- Floating header: `<header class="gw-header gw-header--float">` is, from 1080px, an inset card (the panel radius, the
+  surface at 85% over a 10px blur, one hairline, the raised shadow, 16px from the top). Same bar, mega menu and
+  script; the flat bar below 1080px, so the phone menu is unchanged; solid under `prefers-reduced-transparency` and
+  where the browser cannot blur.
+- Still forbidden with every profile: accent or gradient words in a heading, accent section bands, uppercase labels.
+  `AGENTS.md` (rules 2 and 3, section 7), `docs/theming.md` (a brand chooses six things, nothing else) and
+  `docs/philosophy.md` say what changed and why: the site speaks the language of the brand's own product.
+- `check`: `profile-unknown` (a name that does not exist, or a profile set off `<html>`), `header-float-markup` (the
+  float class off the header) and `action-contrast`, all errors; `token-redefined` and `radius-off-scale` point at
+  the profiles.
+- `system.json` version 2: `profiles` (action, radius, header). `radius.action`, `radius.card` and `radius.panel`
+  moved to `profiles.radius.options.tight`; `radius.scale` gains 24. New tokens: `--gw-radius-popover`,
+  `--gw-radius-24`, `--gw-header-gap`, `--gw-header-surface`, `--gw-header-blur`.
+- `demo/brand-profiles.html`: a GemPages-style brand with all three profiles and the accent `#3c67ff`; its
+  accent-strong `#2f52d6` is an example the GemPages team has still to confirm.
