Same stops, three spaces

The source renders this in sRGB. The number is how much chroma survives at the dullest point along the line — the difference between the first bar and the others is the grey that OKLab removes.

Report

  • white ink: worst 1.86:1 at 1% (fails AA); black ink: worst 5.99:1 at 100% (AA) → use black text.
  • Banding high: ~19px bands at 1440px — add grain 38 (≈3% 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.
