Implements the direction agreed from the identity board: Route C ("Cohort")
with the paper ground from C1, the Schibsted Grotesk / Literata pairing from
C2, and the iris accent from C3. Dark theme is in scope from the start rather
than retrofitted.
The audit found three things wrong beyond taste:
* No brand asset set. og:image was absent entirely, so every link shared into
a class WhatsApp group rendered as a bare grey card. apple-touch-icon pointed
at an SVG, which iOS ignores, and the manifest shipped no PNGs, so Android
installs had no icon. The header mark and the favicon had also drifted into
two different logos.
* No colour discipline. --primary and --trend-down were the same coral, so the
main CTA and "below average" shared a hue. 58 distinct hex values were spread
across component CSS, and the chart palette was still Chart.js's stock demo
colours.
* A dark theme that was declared but never built — themeColor announced a dark
variant with no dark styling behind it.
What changed:
Colour now has exactly three jobs that never borrow each other's hues: brand
(iris) for interactive and identity, status (teal/amber) for above/below a
comparison point, and phase for categories. Teal/amber rather than green/red
keeps the above/below signal readable for every form of colour blindness.
Every chromatic literal in component CSS is now a token, and the JS-painted
surfaces (Chart.js, Leaflet) read the tokens through lib/theme so they follow
the theme instead of ignoring it.
The mark is the five-bar cohort spread — the same object as the distribution
strip inside a school row, built from opacity steps so it inverts cleanly.
components/Logo.tsx is the single source; the favicon, apple-icon and share
card all derive from its geometry.
globals.css drops 123 dead global classes left over from the vanilla-JS app
(only the btn family, .skip-link and .main were still referenced), along with
the noise overlay. It also gains prefers-reduced-motion support, which was
missing entirely, and a type scale so the 54 ad-hoc font sizes have somewhere
to converge.
Verified: tsc clean, 159 unit tests pass, production build succeeds and
prerenders /icon.svg, /apple-icon and /opengraph-image. Three e2e journeys
added for the asset set, the themeColor/background match, and the dark theme
actually repainting — all silent failures that nothing on the page reveals.

The search-result cards and map pins keyed report-card detection off
ofsted_framework === 'ReportCard', but the API sets ofsted_framework to the
raw event grouping ('Schools - S5'); worse, ofsted_grade (the carried-forward
legacy grade) was checked first and won. So report-card schools were badged
by their old grade — Barclay's pin/card read 'Outstanding · 2021' instead of
'Report Card · 2026'. Same root cause as the detail-page fix, different
surface.
Expose ofsted_rc_date on the list serialization (the report-card inspection
date, non-null only for report cards) and make both badge builders treat a
present rc-date as winning over any grade, using its year. Removes the dead
framework === 'ReportCard' branches.

Live axe-core inventory found 13 failing fg/bg pairs (3.12:1 coral text/
fills, 4.0-4.5 teal near-misses, 2.7 gold badge, 1.9 chart-colour text).
All replacement values validated ≥4.5:1 against every background they
sit on:
- --accent-coral-dark deepened to #b04a2e and used for coral text roles
(nav active, back/map links, kickers, chips) and coral fills under
white text (btn-primary, phase tabs, section-nav compare, chart chips);
new --accent-coral-darker #9c3f26 for their hovers. Decorative coral
(pins, bars, borders, focus ring) keeps the brand #e07256.
- --accent-teal darkened to #296f6f (rankings values, metric rows,
ofsted grades, eyebrows all pass).
- Ofsted green #3c8c3c→#2f7a2f; off-token gold #b8920e→--accent-gold-text.
- Gender-split pink text #b45778→#a04a68; admissions tip numerals to a
3.8:1 muted brown (28px display text).
- New CHART_TEXT_COLORS: AA-dark counterparts of the Chart.js series
palette for compare-card values (swatch dots keep true series colour).

Replaces the bare Leaflet popup with a mini card showing school name,
3-state Ofsted badge (OEIF grade / ReportCard / pending), phase tag,
headline metric (Att8 for secondary, RWM% for primary) with delta vs
LA/national average, and a styled View Details button. Threads
nationalAvgRwm and laAverages from HomeView → SchoolMap → LeafletMapInner.

- Remove 10-mile radius option; cap backend radius max at 5 miles
- Raise backend page_size max to 500 so map can fetch all schools in one call
- HomeView: when map view is active, fetch all schools within radius
(page_size=500) instead of showing only the paginated first page;
falls back to initial SSR schools while loading
- SchoolMap/LeafletMapInner: accept referencePoint prop and render a
distinctive coral circle pin at the search postcode location

- URLs now /school/138267-school-name instead of /school/138267
- Bare URN URLs redirect to canonical slug (backward compat)
- Remove overflow-x:hidden that broke sticky tab nav on secondary pages
- ComparisonToast starts collapsed — user must click to open
