## Summary
|
||||
|
||||
The simplest theme model surveyed: one global palette regenerated live from a single primary color (`palette.regenerate(primary)`), shade offsets derived from it, and markup tags (`@bg`, `#auto`) resolving against the palette. The live-regenerate spirit is the portable idea.
|
||||
|
||||
## Key findings
|
||||
|
||||
- A single global palette regenerates live from one primary color via `palette.regenerate(primary)`; shades derive as offsets.
|
||||
- Markup tags (`@bg`, `#auto`) resolve colors against the current palette at render time.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pros / strengths
|
||||
|
||||
- Minimal possible theme API: one color in, whole palette out, live.
|
||||
- Tag-based palette resolution is the same resolve-at-draw idea as ratatui-kit's derivation, in markup form.
|
||||
|
||||
## Cons / limitations / caveats
|
||||
|
||||
- One primary color cannot express tai's semantic roles (success/warning/error/info need independent hues); tai needs the fuller role set.
|
||||
- pytermgui `NO_COLOR` support details were seen in snippet only, not fetched — not claimed here.
|
||||
|
||||
## Relevance to tai
|
||||
|
||||
- Contributes the live-regenerate spirit (a switch repaints everything immediately, via tai's full redraw) and the shade-offset idea to the palette-role conclusion; its single-primary limit is why tai adopts 12 roles instead.
