## What kind of change does this PR introduce?
Bug fix / design-system token hygiene for form and selector chrome.
## What is the current behavior?
After opaque default-button fills, text fields, selects, and selector
tiles drifted apart: inputs and selects mixed ad-hoc washes, hover
borders bounced between `border-stronger` / `border-foreground-muted`,
invalid fields had no hover step, and composites like InputGroup leaked
inner hover borders.
Follow-up to #48837 (opaque button fills) where Select rest still felt
darker than Input on forms such as scoped access tokens.
## What is the new behavior?
Named control roles and one interactive border:
| Role | Fill | Rest border | Hover / focus / open |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Field (sunk) | `bg-field` | `border-control` | `border-control-hover`
|
| Raised control | `bg-control-raised` | `border-strong` |
`border-control-hover` |
| Overlaying action | card → popover | `border-strong` |
`border-control-hover` |
| Invalid field | `bg-destructive-200` | `border-destructive-400` |
`border-destructive` |
- `--field` / `--control-raised` / `--border-control-hover` live in
`semantic.css` (source of truth for roles; README points there)
- Input / Textarea / InputGroup / legacy TextArea use the field ladder
(incl. invalid hover)
- Select and empty MultiSelect use raised; filled MultiSelect sinks to
field
- Default + dashed Button, CommandMenu trigger, and radio
card/stacked/large use `border-control-hover`
- Studio selector tiles aligned: Connect mode, role impersonation,
DuckLake modes, compute “Contact us”

/> |
## Additional context
`--control-raised` aliases `--card` today (role name so fill can diverge
later). Rest `border-control` / `border-strong` both still map to
`--input` via compat; the shared interactive step is
`--border-control-hover`.
## To test
1. **[Account → Access
Tokens](https://studio-staging-git-dnywh-fixcontrol-surface-tokens-supabase.vercel.app/dashboard/account/tokens)**
Open Generate / New scoped token. Side-by-side Input, Select,
RadioGroupStacked, MultiSelect. Confirm sunk vs raised fills, shared
hover border, MultiSelect flips to sunk once a value is selected. Leave
a required field empty to check invalid rest → hover → focus.
2. **[Org →
Projects](https://studio-staging-git-dnywh-fixcontrol-surface-tokens-supabase.vercel.app/dashboard/org/_)**
Hover the dashed Status filter. Hover default / filled filter buttons
when active. Confirm hover/open borders match.
3. **[Project →
Connect](https://studio-staging-git-dnywh-fixcontrol-surface-tokens-supabase.vercel.app/dashboard/project/_)**
Open Connect from the header. Mode grid tiles: hover + selected borders
match radio cards (no old muted-foreground ring).
4. **[Project →
Compute](https://studio-staging-git-dnywh-fixcontrol-surface-tokens-supabase.vercel.app/dashboard/project/_/settings/infrastructure)**
(optional)
Compute size radios + “Contact us” tile hover.

YES
## What kind of change does this PR introduce?
Bug fix
## What is the current behavior?
`text-contrast` / `text-foreground-contrast` resolve to
`--primary-foreground`, which is always the darker of surface /
foreground lightness (text for the green primary fill).
In light mode that is near-black, so contrast text on inverted fills is
wrong: on true black (`bg-black`) it disappears; on dark fills like
`bg-red-900` it shows as a black icon instead of white. Visible
regression on the design-system colour usage page: the `text-contrast`
swatch only shows "Postgres" on hover.
Regression from the colour system rewrite (#47288), which aliased
`--foreground-contrast` → `--primary-foreground`.
## What is the new behavior?
`--foreground-contrast` is defined again as a surface-based inverse of
`--foreground` (light in light mode, dark in dark mode). Tailwind
utilities `text-contrast` and `text-foreground-contrast` map to it.
`--primary-foreground` is unchanged and still used for text on the
primary fill.

|---|---|
| [Design system → Colour

Update studio fonts:
- Headings: Manrope
- Sans-serif: Inter
Slightly reduced font-sizes by 1px (or 2 for bigger font-sizes) and
increased base html font-weight to 450 for better rendering and
legibility.
This PR finishes the Tailwind migration by doing some minor fixes:
- Remove `@radix-ui/colors` and inline the color values into the color
definitions. The default Tailwind colors are unset and replaced by our
own color set (both in light and dark variants).
- Remove the `colorA` colors because they were used with alpha values.
They were unused and Tailwind v4 supports alpha values natively.
- Replace the `hit-area` JS config with the original CSS config from
https://bazza.dev/craft/2026/hit-area. The original config was migrated
to JS config to work with Tailwind v3. Now that we're on v4, we can just
use the source format.
- Remove the `motion-safe-transition` plugin since it's now [supported
natively by
Tailwind](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/transition-duration#supporting-reduced-motion)
- Replace `tailwindcss-animate` with `tw-animate-css`. The old plugin
was unmaintained and using JS config. The new one should be a drop-in
replacement.
- Remove all scripts for generating colors, they're not needed anymore,
all values are hardcoded.

This PR migrates the JS config for Tailwind into a CSS config. As such,
all variables have been defined as CSS variables and they're using the
specialized Tailwind syntax for generating utility classes.
Beside the migration, these changes were also added:
- Added `tailwind.config.css` to few packages to make the Tailwind
Intellisense work.
- Migrated away from Radix style color classes to our defined classes,
the values will remain the same.
- Most of the CSS is generated by scripts, they'll be removed in next
PRs.
* Removed redundant `border-light` classes from several components since
it was undefined.
* Removed redundant `text-strong` classes from several components since
it was undefined.
How to test:
- Open all apps, compare the UI (mainly colors) to builds from #45417
and try to find a difference.
