Catppuccin, Solarized, Ayu, Kanagawa, Everforest and Primer, each with the light and dark variant its own project publishes: Latte and Mocha, Lotus and Wave, and so on. Values were fetched from each project's own repository and recorded in .palette-sources/palettes-upstream.md, with the two tiers no project publishes marked derived rather than passed off as upstream. Four candidates were rejected rather than adapted. Nord and Synthwave '84 publish no light variant, and inventing one is not porting a theme. Monokai is proprietary and its licence forbids redistribution. Material Theme has become a commercial product whose repository no longer publishes a palette at all. Body text is now lifted for contrast like every other text tone rather than exempted and merely checked. Most of these palettes target their own ~4.5:1 for body text where ihasmail asks 7:1, so the old rule would have rejected five of the six on a bar their designers never aimed at. Nudging the published colour along its own hue is what the script already does for muted text, links and accents, and every shift is printed in the generated CSS: Solarized light moves 4.13 to 7.07, Primer needed nothing at all. Primer is named for the design system, not for GitHub. The colour values are MIT; the name and the logo are trademarks, and NOTICE says plainly that nothing here is endorsed. The picker grid already wrapped on its own, so twelve cards needed no layout change.

Dracula — dracula/dracula-theme, MIT
README section is titled "Color Palette (OSS)" and contains BOTH variants, so Alucard is open source and not PRO-only.

Fetched 2026-09-06 from the projects' own repositories, same rule as above. Where a project publishes fewer background tiers than ihasmail needs, the missing one is derived and marked derived here rather than passed off as upstream. Body text is lifted to 7:1 by the build script for most of these — they target their own ~4.5:1 — and every shift is printed in the generated CSS.
Catppuccin — catppuccin/palette, MIT (palette.json)
Cited from the palette repo rather than the hub README; it is the normative machine-readable source.

Latte publishes no tier lighter than base, so base is used as the elevated
surface and mantle as the page behind it.
Solarized — altercation/solarized, MIT (README "The Values")
base03 #002b36 · base02 #073642 · base01 #586e75 · base00 #657b83 base0 #839496 · base1 #93a1a1 · base2 #eee8d5 · base3 #fdf6e3 yellow #b58900 · orange #cb4b16 · red #dc322f · magenta #d33682 violet #6c71c4 · blue #268bd2 · cyan #2aa198 · green #859900
The accents are shared by both modes by design. Two tiers are derived: the sunken dark surface #001f28 (below base03) and the raised light surface #fffdf6 (above base3), neither of which Solarized publishes, plus the two rule colours #0d4552 and #e6dfc8.

Light uses bg_dim as the page and bg0 as the raised surface, so the card the reader looks at is the colour Everforest calls its background.

Ayu — ayu-theme/ayu-colors, MIT (themes/dark.yaml, themes/light.yaml)
The YAMLs give the base palette and the surfaces as literals but express syntax
roles as references ($palette.indigo.l2), and the resolved files are not
committed. The two signature accents are taken from the same organisation's
MIT-licensed ayu-theme/vscode-ayu build.
