Design direction: "Illuminated Transcript" — the AI response is the
primary artifact; user prompts are subordinate margin notes.
ChatMessage.vue:
- User bubble: ghosted background (rgba 3-4% opacity), muted text,
thin near-invisible border. De-emphasized, recessed.
- Assistant bubble: left indigo accent border (2px), elevated shadow
via --color-bubble-asst-shadow. Commands attention.
- Assistant role label: indigo (var(--color-primary)); user label muted.
- Removed old white-override content rules (no longer on dark bg).
- Thinking block: full border → left-only indigo accent bar (35% opacity),
removed inner top border.
ChatView.vue:
- Streaming bubble: same left accent + shadow as assistant bubbles.
- Streaming role label: indigo to match ChatMessage.
- Thinking block in streaming: same treatment as ChatMessage.
theme.css:
- Added --color-bubble-user-bg/border/text for light + dark.
- Added --color-bubble-asst-shadow for light + dark.
