Appearance planning
Theme lanes need rules before switches
Dark emerald
Default CanyonPathRC workspace theme
Current visual foundation. Keep stable while routes mature.
Low-glare
Long-use teacher planning
Reduce brightness and visual noise without hiding important status cues.
High contrast
Accessibility-first reading
Needs explicit contrast testing before implementation.
Light mode
Bright-room use
Future option only. Requires a real token system first.
Accent planning
Color choices must stay accessible
Accent options are labels only until token, focus, status, and contrast rules are defined.

Special education teacher
Student Services, accommodations, support obligations, progress evidence, shared students, and deadlines.
Shared-screen mode
Display and Substitute surfaces that keep private teacher data out of sight.

Where preferences live
Later decide whether preferences are per teacher, per role, per device, or district-controlled.
What themes guarantee
Each theme needs contrast, focus, status, chart, and print/readability rules before implementation.
What role presets control
Presets should change workflow depth and visibility, not bypass permissions or route safety.
No settings persistence, localStorage, accounts, auth, Supabase, storage, theme switching, accessibility implementation, or dashboard widget behavior is wired in this slice.
