Qt and GTK were the one part of the desktop the palette never reached: Kvantum
was pinned to a hand-installed catppuccin-macchiato-lavender directory, so
pcmanfm-qt and every other Qt app stayed Macchiato no matter which scheme was
selected.
A Kvantum theme is a .kvconfig of colours and a .svg of widget artwork with
colours baked into the paths, which looked like it needed redrawing. It did
not: the SVG carries only 27 distinct colours, 12 of them palette colours and
the rest neutral greys that are shading, not theme colour. Both files are now
templates with the 12 as placeholders, derived from the theme this desktop was
already running.
Installs to ~/.config/Kvantum/udt/ under one fixed name for every scheme, so a
switch needs no change to kvantum.kvconfig and leaves no stale theme behind.
Adds accent_dim and accent_bright roles for Kvantum's hover and pressed states.
Verified: no placeholders survive generation, the SVG still parses as XML, and
pcmanfm-qt picks up the new colours on restart. Qt reads a theme at startup
only, so running apps need restarting; AGENTS.md says so.

The dashboard's custom.css was written by hand against Macchiato, so it would
have drifted the moment the desktop changed scheme. It is now generated from
the same roles as everything else and staged on the host by install.sh.
Adds four intermediate grey roles to every scheme. homepage wants a full
ten-step ramp where the other consumers want three depths, and without them
several steps collapsed onto the same colour, flattening the mid-tones.
The scp is deliberately soft: five second timeout, BatchMode, a warning rather
than a failure when the host is unreachable, so a laptop away from that network
still installs the local theme. It stages to ~/hp-stage only, because
/opt/homepage/config is root-owned; install.sh prints the sudo copy to finish.
Verified: the generated Macchiato stylesheet reproduces the deployed one
colour-for-colour, switching to tokyo-night propagates through to the staged
file, and a failing scp leaves install.sh exiting 0.

Colours were written down five times: rofi's palette.rasi, the waybar theme,
the kitty theme, the conky and dunst templates, and a MACCHIATO dict inside
udt-accent. Changing scheme meant finding all five, and they had already
drifted: the active waybar theme was Macchiato while theme.css next to it was
Mocha, and nothing imported the latter.
Now a scheme is two files. palette/<scheme>.conf holds the colours under the
scheme's own names, and palette/roles-<scheme>.conf says what each is for.
palette/roles.conf is one `scheme =` line selecting the pair. bin/udt-palette
renders that into each consumer's syntax and install.sh runs it first.
The role map is per-scheme rather than shared because the palettes are
genuinely different shapes: Nord has no `base`, Dracula no `surface0`, and
forcing Catppuccin's names onto them would have meant either renaming their
colours or inventing values. A role names a palette colour with two optional
modifiers, `name/75` for alpha and `name*50` for brightness. The second exists
because GTK's shade() has no palette name to point at.
Ships macchiato, tokyo-night, nord and dracula. --selftest resolves every role
in every scheme and asserts they define the same set, so a scheme that cannot
satisfy a consumer fails at install rather than when someone switches to it.
Verified against the live configs: all 46 waybar colours resolve identically to
the previously active theme including its alpha() and shade() derivations, the
kitty theme is colour-for-colour identical, and the rofi palette has the same
26 values. Generated files are gitignored; switching scheme and switching back
reproduces the originals.
