# Nokia gradient

Gradients derived from Nokia'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 gradient

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #124191 0%, #0065ed 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#124191] to-[#0065ed]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 5.14:1 AA · black 2.19:1 fail · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.124191-0065ed?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 (4.95:1) without adjusting L.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #374762 0%, #56719d 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#374762] to-[#56719d]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 4.95:1 AA · black 2.24:1 fail · banding high · ink #ffffff
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.374762-56719d?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. White ink passes AA on the surface and both states (worst 7.05:1).

- CSS: `linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #1e4d9e 0%, #053584 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-b/oklch from-[#1e4d9e] to-[#053584]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 8.04:1 AA · black 1.85:1 fail · banding high · ink #ffffff
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.1e4d9e-053584?a=180&in=oklch&hue=shorter
- Hover: `linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #2656a8 0%, #0f3e8e 100%)`
- Active: `linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #154494 0%, #002c7b 100%)`

## Tonal ramp

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #4677cc 0%, #124191 50%, #000759 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklch from-[#4677cc] via-[#124191] to-[#000759]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 4.40:1 AA-large · black 1.18:1 fail · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.4677cc-124191-000759?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, #124191 0%, #174d64 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#124191] to-[#174d64]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 9.16:1 AA · black 2.19:1 fail · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.124191-174d64?a=135

## Complementary

Partner hue from the complementary rule at the source colour's lightness. ΔH 180° > 140° — interpolating in oklch (shorter hue) keeps the midpoint saturated.

- CSS: `linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #124191 0%, #5a4214 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklch from-[#124191] to-[#5a4214]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 9.40:1 AA · black 2.10:1 fail · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.124191-5a4214?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, #124191 0%, #801a25 100%)`
- Tailwind: `bg-linear-to-br/oklab from-[#124191] to-[#801a25]`
- Contrast (worst point): white 9.53:1 AA · black 2.09:1 fail · banding high
- Maker: https://brandsweets.com/gradients/new/v1.124191-801a25?a=135

## CSS custom properties (brand.css)

```css
:root {
  /* Brand gradient (derived) */
  /* worst-case contrast: white 5.14:1 AA, black 2.19:1 */
  --brand-gradient: linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #124191 0%, #0065ed 100%);
  /* hero — worst-case contrast: white 4.95:1 AA, black 2.24:1; ink passes AA at the worst point */
  --brand-gradient-hero: linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #374762 0%, #56719d 100%);
  --brand-gradient-hero-ink: #ffffff;
  /* button — worst-case contrast: white 8.04:1 AA, black 1.85:1 */
  --brand-gradient-button: linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #1e4d9e 0%, #053584 100%);
  --brand-gradient-button-hover: linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #2656a8 0%, #0f3e8e 100%);
  --brand-gradient-button-active: linear-gradient(180deg in oklch shorter hue, #154494 0%, #002c7b 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.

## Connect an agent

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.
