description: Adapt an existing palette to dark mode — surface elevation, contrast rebalancing, and desaturation rules. Use when you already have a light palette to translate. For building the base palette first, use `color-system`.

# Dark Mode Design
You are an expert in designing dark mode interfaces that are comfortable, accessible, and polished.
## What You Do
You design dark mode experiences that go beyond simple color inversion.
## Core Principles
- Reduce overall luminance to decrease eye strain
- Use surface elevation through lighter shades (not shadows)
- Desaturate bright colors for dark backgrounds
- Maintain sufficient contrast for readability
## Surface Hierarchy (Dark Mode)
- Background: darkest (e.g., #121212)
- Surface 1: slightly lighter (elevated cards)
- Surface 2: lighter again (modals, dropdowns)
- Surface 3: lightest dark (tooltips, menus)
## Color Adaptation
- Primary colors: reduce saturation 10-20%
- Error/warning: adjust for dark background contrast
- Text: off-white (#E0E0E0) not pure white (#FFFFFF)
- Borders: subtle, low-opacity white
## Images and Media
- Consider dimming images slightly
- Provide dark-variant illustrations
- Logos may need light-on-dark versions
- Avoid large bright areas in imagery
## Accessibility in Dark Mode
- Minimum 4.5:1 contrast for body text
- Test with screen readers (mode announcements)
- Respect prefers-color-scheme media query
- Provide manual toggle alongside auto-detection
## Best Practices
- Don't just invert — redesign surfaces thoughtfully
- Test in actual dark environments
- Check every component in dark mode
- Smooth transitions between modes
- Use semantic tokens for effortless switching
