+       Lets native UI (scrollbars, spinbuttons, form-control chrome, the
+       default focus ring) honor the OS preference when the consumer has
+       NOT pinned a `.dark` class. glass-ui's dark mode is class-driven
+       (`.dark`, theme.css `@variant dark`), so `.dark` overrides to a hard
+       `dark` regardless of OS — but absent the class, native chrome should
+       still track `prefers-color-scheme`. `light dark` (not `only light`)
+       on `:root` delivers that; `.dark` hard-pins `dark`.
+
+       Baseline Widely Available → adopt natively, no `@supports` guard
+       (older engines ignore the property and keep default-light chrome).
+       `accent-color` (AQ.W2 §4) is the companion native-control brand;
+       both are inherited built-in <color>/keyword properties re-specified
+       inside `.dark`. The `--accent-color` token is defined in the §5
+       color block below (custom properties resolve order-independently).

-           bar entrance — both already at 80ms). Aliased as `default`

-           omitting `delayMs` resolve to the same token.
-         • relaxed (120ms) — wider cascades where each reveal carries
-           its own attention budget (TimeSeriesChart series entrance)
-
-       The FD2 §6 rule-1 "shared period multiple" canon for ambient
-       cycles extends here to staggers: at 40/80/120ms, the default
-       (80ms) is the LCM of tight (40) AND a 2/3 of relaxed (120)
-       — a tight cascade beating against a default cascade syncs on

-       cascade syncs on every-three-reveals. Consumers that nest
-       multiple cascades on adjacent surfaces should pick adjacent

-
-       • Chassis phase-tint companion (M.1) — the `--phase-color` cross-
-         fade established by the chassis cascade gains an amount companion
-         (`@property --phase-tint-amount`) so the chassis backdrop "warms

-         600ms default so a non-speedtest consumer still gets the cross-
-         fade shape.
-
-       • Audacious button press-ripple (M.2 Q5 — ratified G-AI-D27) — the
-         `btn-audacious` utility gains an in-place `@property --ripple-
-         radius` ripple emanating from the pressed surface. Single typed
-         length, ramps 0 → max over the ripple duration, retires on
-         release. Q3 (needle micro-jitter) + Q4 (DockLayerGroup sympath-

+   §-1b  LIGHT-DARK() COLOR ARCHITECTURE (AQ.W2 §2)
+
+   Every PAIRED color token (a token whose `:root` and `.dark` values are
+   BOTH a <color> and differ) folds onto one `light-dark(light, dark)`
+   declaration, keyed off the element's `color-scheme` (§-1). This is the
+   single-source-of-truth collapse of the `.dark` mirror AND the dynamism
+   win: an unregistered custom property holding a `light-dark()` expression
+   re-resolves under a descendant `color-scheme` override (a `.dark`
+   code-block embedded in a light page, or vice-versa).
+
+   DISCIPLINE (§2b — BINDING): these tokens MUST stay UNREGISTERED (no
+   `@property … syntax:"<color>"`). A registered <color> would resolve ONCE
+   at the declaring element and inherit the RESOLVED color, freezing the
+   descendant re-resolution. glass-ui's only `@property` registrations (§18)
+   are non-color (percentage/length), so the discipline holds — W2 adds NO
+   color `@property`.
+
+   The semantic `var()`-aliases (`--background`, `--muted`, `--border`,
+   `--secondary`, `--accent`, `--card-foreground`, …) do NOT appear here:
+   they point at the SAME source name in both modes and auto-track once the
+   `--neutral-*` ladder + `--foreground` resolve via `light-dark()`. Their
+   redundant `.dark` re-declarations DELETE below.
+
+   FALLBACK (§2c): this whole block is `@supports`-gated, so an engine
+   WITHOUT `light-dark()` skips it and the retained `.dark` class block (the
+   SOLE fallback floor) drives dark exactly as at HEAD. `light-dark()` is the
+   enhancement OVER the class — not a parallel alias. Baseline Newly
+   Available; the fallback floor is the pre-existing class block (net-zero
