Character themes keep a clear primary/secondary accent pair (high luminance difference), use bold on keywords, and bold + underline on invalid tokens so status is not color-only (friendlier for color vision deficiency — protanopia/deuteranopia).
Chaos Emerald tip: pair a color theme with Sonic-Inspired Icons for the full Adventure-era vibes.
File icons
26 character icons mapped by color/vibe (Tails→JS, Sonic→TS, Knuckles→HTML, Super→JSON, Metal→Rust, Chaos→SQL, …).
No Badniks in the explorer - just the gang from Station Square to Radical Highway.
