white ink: worst 1.60:1 at 99% (fails AA); black ink: worst 11.29:1 at 0% (AA) → use black text.
Banding high: ~15px bands at 1440px — add grain 31 (≈2% soft-light noise) or shorten the ramp.

mcpConnect your agent to the gradient engine

live endpoint

Point any MCP client at the shared gradients endpoint and your agent gets the same engine as this page — make_gradient returns CSS with the interpolation space, Tailwind v4, SVG, a PNG URL, a DTCG token and the contrast report in one call; brand_gradients derives the whole contact sheet from a brand or a palette. Read-only, no key. Every gradient is a /gradients/new/… link: open it, refine, paste it back.
