01 / New task
The first impression
A light, continuous greenhouse scene gives the native workspace more air. The arrival state can be expressive because the workspace is still quiet.

An airy glasshouse above the clouds, balancing blue-grey, ivory, sage, and coral across a rare full light-mode Codex experience.

Three scenes / one system
See the theme where
the experience changes.
These are synthetic Codex workspaces. Every project, task, prompt, and code sample is fictional; only the theme itself is real.
02 / Running task
The place you actually work
Paper-like surfaces and measured contrast make long-form work feel calm. A calmer composition keeps long conversations, code, and the composer readable.
03 / Code review
The quality proof
Neutral glasshouse tones preserve Git status and code-review meaning. Semantic additions, deletions, line numbers, and syntax remain clear inside the theme.
Below the headline scenes
The smaller states still
have to hold together.
These details are validated as part of the theme contract, then summarized instead of competing with the three main scenes.
Navigation & sidebar
Expanded and collapsed widths, project rows, task history, active states, and dividers.
Composer & long tasks
Input focus, code blocks, tool output, long responses, scrolling, and readable content lanes.
Transient & responsive
Menus, tooltips, narrow windows, status colors, hover states, and contrast boundaries.
