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.

01 / New task

The first impression

A full-window arrival scene with the character anchored away from the action area. The arrival state can be expressive because the workspace is still quiet.

02 / Running task

The place you actually work

A calmer reading lane built for long sessions without losing the world around it. A calmer composition keeps long conversations, code, and the composer readable.

03 / Code review

The quality proof

A neutral review surface that protects additions, deletions, and syntax colors. 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.

01

Navigation & sidebar

Expanded and collapsed widths, project rows, task history, active states, and dividers.

02

Composer & long tasks

Input focus, code blocks, tool output, long responses, scrolling, and readable content lanes.

03

Transient & responsive

Menus, tooltips, narrow windows, status colors, hover states, and contrast boundaries.
