Summary

The landing page used a placeholder blue rounded-square logo and a blue #0066cc accent throughout — neither matched the real Forge logo (a black anvil + crossed hammers on a copper/amber forge-glow). This rebrands the whole site to the logo's palette.

Changes

Real logo

  • Replace the 3 placeholder SVGs (Hero nav, Footer, Comparison) with the actual Forge emblem (/favicon.svg, the ember-plate anvil mark) — reads cleanly on the dark UI.

Landing palette → forge glow (all 6 components + index.astro)

  • Blue/cyan/teal accents → ember #ed8936, amber #f59e0b, gold #fcd34d/#fbbf24; ember radial glows.
  • "Forge wins" metrics + hovers → gold/amber (were green/blue).
  • Backgrounds leaned blacker with a faint warm undertone.

Docs theme (Starlight) — so the docs UI matches too

  • tailwind.config.mjs: accent ramp + forge.* colors → ember; bluish gray ramp → warm-neutral, darker.
  • custom.css: --sl-color-accent (light + dark) → ember; --sl-color-gray-* neutralized; --sl-color-black blacker.

Test plan

  • npm run build90 pages, no errors
  • Zero blue/cyan remains anywhere in dist (landing + all docs pages)
  • Ember accent (--sl-color-accent: #ed8936) applied site-wide; real emblem wired into the 3 landing logos

Note: no PR-level CI builds the Astro site (deploy-site runs only on merge to main), so the build was verified locally. On merge, deploy-site.yml redeploys.

The landing page used a placeholder blue rounded-square SVG and a blue (#0066cc)
accent throughout — neither matched the actual Forge logo (a black anvil with
crossed hammers on a copper/amber forge-glow). Bring the site in line with the
brand:

- Logo: replace the 3 placeholder SVGs (Hero nav, Footer, Comparison) with the
  real Forge emblem (`/favicon.svg` — the ember-plate anvil mark), which reads
  on the dark UI.
- Landing palette (all 6 components): swap the blue/cyan/teal accents for the
  forge glow — ember `#ed8936`, amber `#f59e0b`, gold `#fcd34d`/`#fbbf24` — and
  ember radial glows (`rgba(237,137,54,…)`). "Forge wins" metrics and hovers go
  gold/amber instead of green/blue.
- Backgrounds leaned blacker with a faint warm undertone (`#0a0a0a`→`#050505`,
  `#111118`→`#0a0a0c`, etc.).
- Docs theme (Starlight): `tailwind.config.mjs` accent ramp + `forge.*` colors
  and `custom.css` `--sl-color-accent` (light + dark) converted from blue to the
  ember ramp; the bluish `--sl-color-gray-*` ramp neutralized to warm grays and
  darkened. So docs links/sidebar/active states now match the logo too.

Verified: `npm run build` → 90 pages, no errors; zero blue/cyan remains anywhere
in `dist` (landing + docs); the real emblem is wired into the landing logos.

Add the real Forge mark (anvil + crossed hammers on the ember plate) as a 120px
hero logo above the headline, with an ember drop-shadow glow to match the brand
palette. Ships a web-sized 256px asset (site/public/forge-mark.png, 52KB,
downscaled from the 1024px brand source) rather than the 898KB original.
Scales to 96px on narrow screens.

Verified: npm run build -> 90 pages; the asset ships to dist and is referenced
on the homepage; still zero blue anywhere.
