skill: strengthen anti-cream rule across full warm-neutral band

Browse Source 
Smoke validation showed the cream fix worked for Google + OpenAI but
Anthropic Sonnet italian-restaurant still shipped `--paper: oklch(90%
.018 88)` — cream just outside the L≥95% band the rule cited.

Broaden the rule:
- Band: OKLCH L 0.84-0.97, C < 0.06, hue 40-100 (was 95-97% / 60-95).
- Name the token-name tells explicitly (paper / cream / sand / bone /
  flour / linen / parchment / wheat / biscuit / ivory) — the model
  defaults to one of these regardless of what hex it lands on.
- Call out the specific brief patterns ("warm, traditional, family-
  coastal-Italian" / "editorial-restraint") that the model translates
  into cream by reflex. Then provide three explicit non-cream options:
  saturated brand color, true off-white at C=0, or darker mid-tone.

Warmth in the brand is carried by accent + typography + imagery, not
by body bg.

- Use OKLCH. Reduce chroma as lightness approaches 0 or 100; high chroma at extremes looks garish.
- Never use `#000` or `#fff`. When you use a neutral, tint it slightly toward the brand hue (chroma 0.005–0.01 is enough).
- **The cream / sand / beige body bg is the saturated AI default of 2026.** Warm-tinted neutrals at ~95–97% lightness with hue 60–95 are the "safe warm" reflex; they aren't safe, they're the tell. The bg comes from the brand, not from a default palette — and the default-warm-tint is now the AI giveaway across providers.
- **The cream / sand / beige body bg is the saturated AI default of 2026.** The whole warm-neutral band — OKLCH L 0.84-0.97, C < 0.06, hue 40-100 — reads as cream/sand/paper/parchment regardless of what you call it. Token names like `--paper`, `--cream`, `--sand`, `--bone`, `--flour`, `--linen`, `--parchment`, `--wheat`, `--biscuit`, `--ivory` are tells in themselves. If the brief is "warm, traditional, family-coastal-Italian" or "magazine-warm" or "editorial-restraint", DO NOT translate that into a near-white warm-tinted bg — that's the AI move. Pick: (a) a saturated brand color as the body (terracotta, oxblood, deep ochre, near-black), (b) a true off-white at chroma 0 (or chroma toward the brand's own hue, not toward warmth-by-default), or (c) a darker mid-tone tinted neutral that's clearly the brand's own. "Warmth" in the brand is carried by accent + typography + imagery, not by body bg.
- Pick a **color strategy** before picking colors. Four steps on the commitment axis:
- **Restrained**: tinted neutrals + one accent ≤10%. Product default; brand minimalism.
- **Committed**: one saturated color carries 30–60% of the surface. Brand default for identity-driven pages.
