jheapsandClaude Opus 5 382238e708 Tell the browser the page is dark, and stop painting over it instead
Everything in this stylesheet is a colour it paints. `color-scheme` is the half
it cannot: the browser draws the checkboxes, the menu a <select> opens, the
scrollbars, the caret, the spellcheck underline and the autofill wash, and with
no scheme declared it draws every one of them for a light page. Measured,
`color-scheme: normal` on a #141414 ground — three checkboxes in Table Setup
rendering as bright white squares, the loudest objects on the screen and
brighter than the gold, and two more in the seat sheet doing it over the felt.

The comment on the pot wizard's hand-painted checkbox called it "the last raw
browser control in the tool". Six others were still the platform's, and three
of those were still 13x13 against a 24px floor this file had already written
down once — in a comment that explains the floor, attached to a rule naming one
checkbox by id.

One declaration on :root moves all six, and moves them natively, which is the
part worth having: a control the browser draws still answers Windows High
Contrast Mode, still matches the platform the dealer already knows, and cannot
lose its tick to a stylesheet. `accent-color` makes the checked state the green
this tool already uses for yes — the same #1e8449 the painted box fills with,
so the one drawn checkbox and the six native ones agree rather than nearly
agree.

The painted one stays painted, because it is not a setting: it is the box a
dealer ticks to move money with players watching, and it wants a fill that
reads across a table. But it now pays what painting costs. A tick drawn as a
`background` on a pseudo-element is not a colour forced-colors mode knows how
to replace, so it was simply gone — no visible checked state at all in Windows
High Contrast Mode, on the dialog that pays the table. System keywords are the
only colours guaranteed to survive, because they are the palette.

Three other things fell out of looking:

The id-scoped 24px rule existed three times over — once in the open, once under
`max-width: 700px`, once under `pointer: coarse` — and still reached one box of
six. Said about checkboxes instead, once.

A colour swatch declared 32px wide measured 22 with a mouse: flex-shrink, the
exact mechanism the coarse-pointer block had already been bitten by and written
a note about. It gets the same `flex: none` the touch case got.

Quick Split is the darker of the two pages and had never declared a scheme
either. It has no checkboxes to go white, but a dealer opening it from the felt
should not find a light scrollbar down the side of it.

1104 tests pass; the 418-audit sweep is clean.
