Three review findings. --status-below-bg carried the raw --coral tuple (249,115,96) instead of the hue it belongs to (#A9481F → 169,72,31), so "below average" chips rendered a coral-pink wash behind terracotta text — the one solid/tint pair in the file whose hues disagreed. Alpha drops 0.15 → 0.12 to match --status-above-bg, so the two chips read as equal weight; left at 0.15 the darker terracotta tint takes the label to 4.45:1 on Warm White, under the 4.5 floor. At 0.12 it is 4.86:1 on cards and 4.67:1 on Warm White. Auditing the whole file for the same class of error turned up one more: --action-bg was also a --coral tint while --action is the darkened #BE3C27. It is unused today and the dark-theme value was already correct, but it is aligned so a future coral ghost button gets a matching label and ground. The five phase pairs also "mismatch" by the same test and are deliberately left alone: those pair a pastel ground (sage, sky, mustard, lavender) with a deeper text hue, which is exactly what the guideline's Chips/Tags show. The lowercase wordmark had only reached the visual chrome. Every user-visible occurrence now matches: page title and template, appleWebApp title, authors, OpenGraph and Twitter titles and siteName, the school page's siteName, the PWA manifest name and short_name, the footer copyright line, the nav's aria-label, the Web Share API strings, and the editorial paragraph. Comments in lib/*.ts and AdmissionsView still say "SchoolCompare"; they describe the codebase rather than the mark, so they are left to keep this diff to the reported problem. The comment explaining why the font classes belong on <html> still described --font-schibsted, which no longer exists. It now names --font-manrope and --font-inter, and records that the e2e typeface assertion is the only guard — this failure mode throws nothing and fails no unit test. Verified: tsc clean, 159/159 tests, build green, and the rendered title is now "School Admissions Guide | schoolcompare". Status and phase labels re-checked on their own composited tints over both light grounds — all clear AA.
