Blue, Dodger Blue and Taupe lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.

shippedTaupe is paired with #16aa0e in 7 real palettes, including Obsidian's brand system and Meadow, as the text colour against it.
Medium Orchid #ba55d3
complementaryMedium Orchid sits directly opposite #16aa0e on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Medium Purple #9370db
split-complementshippedMedium Purple is a split-complement of #16aa0e: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
Charcoal #36454f
