# Framer gradient

Gradients derived from Framer's published colour tokens (nominative use; no brand assets). Deterministic: the same values are served as `--brand-gradient*` in the brand's brand.css.

- Brand colors: https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/framer · Brand page: https://brandsweets.com/b/framer
- Palette: primary #0055ff

## Brand gradient

No secondary or accent — the second stop is derived (analogous +30° at the primary's lightness).

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #0055ff 0%, #7d15ff 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#0055ff] to-[#7d15ff]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 5.59:1 AA · black 3.42:1 AA-large · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.0055ff-7d15ff?a=135

## Hero background

Chroma ×0.35 so it can carry text; ink white (inkFor at the midpoint). Passes AA for that ink at the worst point (5.22:1) without adjusting L.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #506ca2 0%, #6f61a2 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#506ca2] to-[#6f61a2]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 5.22:1 AA · black 3.90:1 AA-large · banding high · ink #ffffff
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.506ca2-6f61a2?a=135

## Button / CTA

ΔL 0.08 top→bottom in the primary's hue (a lit surface, not a rainbow); hover L +0.03, active L −0.03. L shifted −0.02 so white ink passes AA on the surface and both states (worst 4.65:1).

- CSS: `linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #095cff 0%, #003ee9 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-b/oklch from-[#095cff] to-[#003ee9]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 5.27:1 AA · black 2.87:1 fail · banding high · ink #ffffff
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.095cff-003ee9?a=180&in=oklch&hue=shorter
- Hover: `linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #1c69ff 0%, #004af4 100%)`
- Active: `linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #0051fb 0%, #0032df 100%)`

## Tonal ramp

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #679eff 0%, #0055ff 50%, #0000bf 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklch from-[#679eff] via-[#0055ff] to-[#0000bf]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 2.65:1 fail · black 1.75:1 fail · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.679eff-0055ff-0000bf?a=135&in=oklch&hue=shorter

## Analogous

Partner hue from the analogous rule at the source colour's lightness.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #0055ff 0%, #0076a1 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#0055ff] to-[#0076a1]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 5.10:1 AA · black 3.73:1 AA-large · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.0055ff-0076a1?a=135

## Complementary

Partner hue from the complementary rule at the source colour's lightness. ΔH 179° > 140° — interpolating in oklch (shorter hue) keeps the midpoint saturated.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #0055ff 0%, #8c6500 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklch from-[#0055ff] to-[#8c6500]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 5.28:1 AA · black 3.56:1 AA-large · banding medium
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.0055ff-8c6500?a=135&in=oklch&hue=shorter

## Triadic

Partner hue from the triadic rule at the source colour's lightness.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #0055ff 0%, #cc002b 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#0055ff] to-[#cc002b]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 5.47:1 AA · black 3.59:1 AA-large · banding medium
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.0055ff-cc002b?a=135

## CSS custom properties (brand.css)

```css
:root {
  /* Brand gradient (derived) */
  /* worst-case contrast: white 5.59:1 AA, black 3.42:1 AA-large */
  --brand-gradient: linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #0055ff 0%, #7d15ff 100%);
  /* hero — worst-case contrast: white 5.22:1 AA, black 3.90:1 AA-large; ink passes AA at the worst point */
  --brand-gradient-hero: linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #506ca2 0%, #6f61a2 100%);
  --brand-gradient-hero-ink: #ffffff;
  /* button — worst-case contrast: white 5.27:1 AA, black 2.87:1 */
  --brand-gradient-button: linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #095cff 0%, #003ee9 100%);
  --brand-gradient-button-hover: linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #1c69ff 0%, #004af4 100%);
  --brand-gradient-button-active: linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #0051fb 0%, #0032df 100%);
  --brand-gradient-button-ink: #ffffff;
}
```

## Gradient maker

Every maker URL is the gradient's state: `/gradients/new/v1.<hex>-<hex>[_pos]?a=135&in=oklch&hue=shorter&e=soft&g=8`. Hand one to a human, let them refine, and read the link they return.

Point any MCP client at the BrandSweets gradients endpoint for the same engine and corpus:

- Endpoint: https://mcp.brandsweets.com/gradients/mcp
- Tools: `make_gradient` (2–5 colours → CSS with the interpolation space, Tailwind v4, SVG, PNG URL, DTCG token + the contrast/banding/gamut report), `brand_gradients` (brand slug or palette → brand gradient, hero, button, variants).
- Resource: `gradients://corpus` — the whole bundled corpus as JSON.
