Why

Claude Code used its stock dark theme, which clashes with the Nord palette in
Ghostty, pi and Neovim. Ported themes such as doom-nord use blended doom
variants, not the canonical Nord colors.

What

  • claude/themes/nord.json: a dark theme built from the 16 canonical Nord
    colors, plus #7B88A1 and #242933 from the pi theme.
  • Diff lines tint 8% (dimmed 4%) and changed words 30% over nord0. The first
    draft used 20%/40%, which looked heavy. Compared in Ghostty screenshots.
  • mise/conf.d/claude.toml: link the theme into ~/.claude/themes/.
  • claude/settings.json: select custom:nord.

- Add claude/themes/nord.json, built from the 16 canonical Nord colors.
- Tint diff lines 8% (dimmed 4%) and changed words 30% over nord0, so
  diffs stay quiet.
- Use #7B88A1 for inactive text, the same grey as the pi theme.
- Link the theme into ~/.claude/themes and select custom:nord.
