Candy Factory for Pop!_OS COSMIC

A dark + light COSMIC theme, a matching cosmic-term color scheme, an installer, and a CLAUDE.md Claude Code can read to rebuild the whole kit.

§ The theme, mapped

Each CandyFactory token gets a job in the COSMIC theme. The mapping below is canonical — it's what's encoded in themes/*.ron and the CLAUDE.md spec.

🔥 BONFIRE · dark
bg_color--ink · #1a1626
text_tint--bg cream · #fff8e7
accent--pink · #ff5fa2
destructive--brand-hot · #ff3b6b
success--brand-b mint · #5fd4c4
warning--brand-d butter · #ffd84d
window_hint--brand-pop grape · #a96bff
🍭 PARLOR · light

§ How it looks in COSMIC Settings

Mocked appearance pane and a focused window — both modes — to sanity-check the result before you install.

§ Hand it to Claude Code

The directory ships with a CLAUDE.md spec sheet — token table, RON schema, install paths, validation checklist. Run claude in the directory and paste the snippet below.

~ § paste-into-claude-code.md
# BUILD THE CANDYFACTORY COSMIC THEME

You are in the candyfactory-cosmic/ directory.

1.  Read CLAUDE.md end-to-end.
2.  Validate themes/*.ron against §4 (Schema) and §5 (Token mapping).
    Fix any mismatch silently and report what you changed.
3.  Generate ~/.config/cosmic/com.system76.CosmicSettings/v1/accent_palette_dark
    and accent_palette_light per §6 Step 2.
4.  Run ./install.sh --dry-run, show me the plan, wait for "go".
5.  On "go": run ./install.sh, then print the diff of files written
    and the COSMIC paths that now have CandyFactory content.
6.  Tail journalctl --user -u cosmic-comp for 5s after install to catch
    config parse errors. If clean, print § Sweets, baking.

Do not invent colors. Do not enable is_frosted. Do not round corners
past radius_l = 18. Voice = stoic, plain, tactile — match the README.

Or just open CLAUDE.md directly — it's the full spec, including the COSMIC RON schema and the canonical color table.

§ Install

Drop the folder anywhere, then run the installer. It's idempotent and reversible.

~ § bash
~ ▸ git clone https://github.com/BonfireAI/candyfactory-cosmic.git
~ ▸ cd candyfactory-cosmic
~/candyfactory-cosmic ▸ chmod +x install.sh
~/candyfactory-cosmic ▸ ./install.sh --dry-run

Next, in COSMIC:

  1. Settings → Desktop → Appearance → Import → pick themes/candyfactory-bonfire-dark.ron (or the -parlor-light.ron).
  2. cosmic-term → View → Color schemes → Import → pick themes/candyfactory-term-bonfire.ron.
