Neuro-adaptive profiles
Choose any combination. They layer together.
A colour-blind, RSD-safe palette
No green or red anywhere — not in backgrounds, borders, text, buttons, progress bars, icons, notifications, success or error messages.
Two reasons: green and red are hardest to tell apart for red-green colour blindness (1 in 12 men), and green = good/done, red = wrong/failed both trigger Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria.

A neutral tick in amber. Never a green checkmark.
Error message — amber on warm ivory, never red
Something needs your attention. Amber text (#8B7355) on a warm ivory background (#FAF6F0).
Literal icons — with text labels, always
Every feature uses a representational icon — a shield for protection, a microphone for voice, a lock for the vault — with the text label beside it. No abstract shapes that require memorisation.
