Geist joins as the long-form body face New

New type rule: body copy up to about two sentences may set in Poppins; anything longer must set in Geist (--font-long). The Typography section gains a Long-form body · Geist specimen, and the skill bundle's tokens and rules teach the split to coding agents.

Logo showcards on cream New

The light showcards in the Logo section were still #F8F8FF blue-white; they now use the Morpheus cream #FBFAF6 so they sit naturally on the canvas.

Token tables follow the theme New

The Backgrounds & greys and Font colors tables no longer show both columns at once — in dark mode you see the dark values, in light mode the light values. Flip the theme toggle to compare. Product lockup downloads also joined the brand guidelines Downloads section.

Official product lockups New

The official Moderne + product lockup files (Platform Status and Documentation, white and Midnight versions) join the kit under assets/brand-guidelines/. The kit page's Logo section gains a "Moderne + product" row, and the brand guidelines Product lockups section now shows the real files — on light backgrounds the product name sets in slate #99A3B0 beside the Midnight logo.

Brand-asset rules for coding agents New

The skill bundle's SKILL.md and the starter kit's MORPHEUS.md now include a "Brand assets" section: agents must pick up the logo, DNA strand, and spectral bar from the design kit's hosted files — never redraw or recolor them — with the asset URL table, the Midnight/white color rule, clear-space and minimum sizes, and the product-lockup recipe.

Link accent is now true AAA blue New

The Morpheus light-mode link accent moves from #1055E2 (5.4:1 on the cream canvas — AA only, despite its label) to #1245AE (7.4:1 canvas / 8.1:1 card — AAA). Applied across morpheus.html, the design-kit library, Code Genome, and the tokens & starter downloads. Deep accent stays #16306B; info-toast blues are unchanged.

Design Kit skill bundle regenerated New

The .skill bundle's light tokens still carried the old cool greys (#F6F7FA / #ECEEF3 / #1B2230). Rebuilt with the Morpheus cream palette so agents given the bundle produce the current light mode.

Changelog page added

This page. The "New update here" badges on the kit page now link here.

Palette reference retoned to Morpheus cream

Light neutrals move to the cream family with the ink primary CTA and AAA links; ?theme=light|dark deep links added.

DNA strand assets refreshed

New renders across the full set — svg, pdf, 1x/2x/3x png — plus new @2x and jpg files.

Brand guidelines: product lockups

New section documenting the Moderne + product-name lockup (per the Platform Status reference): Poppins Light at the mark's cap height, same color as the logo. White-on-Midnight and Midnight-on-light examples from the real logo assets.

Brand guidelines page added; logo corrected to Midnight

Logo-section guidelines (variants, color variations, clear space, sizing, placement, downloads, incorrect uses) in Morpheus cream/ink. The vendored logo SVGs were filled with a generic gray — corrected to brand Midnight #041834, with an upstream PR opened against the design system.

Kit page: cream light mode, outline buttons, cleanup

Light mode aligned to the Morpheus cream palette (matching morpheus.html); hardcoded black download buttons converted to the outline treatment; green ambient glow removed; hero copy replaces the lorem ipsum placeholder.

July 14, 2026

Morpheus dark palette

Dark mode rethemed to the Morpheus dark family — warm black canvas with ink-navy surfaces.

DNA strand hero + downloads

The brand helix becomes the hero image, with a download row (PNG / SVG / PDF) and the complete 1x/2x/3x asset set.

Morpheus tokens & starter downloads

CSS tokens, lightweight starter HTML, and a markdown brief for coding agents, under the MORPHEUS wordmark.

July 13, 2026

Whole-number type scale

Fractional font sizes consolidated to the whole-number scale across the kit and the skill bundle.

July 11, 2026

Morpheus Design Kit library

The Morpheus component library page joins the kit, with its banner row on the preview page.

Token swatches updated to the values shipping in the app.
