The bundled skins were an ad-hoc set that had drifted from anything
recognisable. They are now forks of the VS Code themes people already know,
produced by the repo's own marketplace converter rather than transcribed by
hand, so each palette is byte-identical to what installing the extension
would give you.
`nous` keeps GitHub's chrome and carries the brand blue as its accent. Two
seeds, one colour: `#0053fd` reads at 5.4:1 on the light sidebar but only
3.6:1 on the near-black dark one, so dark carries `#4a84fe` — the same hue
at 263°, lifted to clear AA at 5.9:1. Everything else in both palettes is
upstream's, and a test holds that line.
`github` ships alongside it, unmodified, so the original stays available on
its own terms instead of only existing as the thing nous diverged from.
Catppuccin, Everforest and Solarized join them; the skins nobody could name
are retired, with `midnight` folded into the retired list so anyone sitting
on it lands on nous rather than a dead name.
