Input from Gemini 3 Pro:
✦ I have formalized the dark theme blockquote background color as a core token.
Changes:
- New Token: Added
--purple-950: #11141C;toresources/scss/theme-neo-dark/design-tokens/Core.scss.- Markdown Update: Updated
resources/scss/theme-neo-dark/component/Markdown.scssto usevar(--purple-950)for--markdown-blockquote-bg, replacing thecolor-mix()calculation.This ensures a consistent and reusable deep purple color for blockquote backgrounds in the dark theme.

We are currently calculating the markdown blockquote background color using
color-mix. We want to formalize the resulting color#11141cas a core token to avoid runtime calculation and make it reusable.Changes:
--purple-950: #11141C;toresources/scss/theme-neo-dark/design-tokens/Core.scss.resources/scss/theme-neo-dark/component/Markdown.scssto usevar(--purple-950)for--markdown-blockquote-bg.Rationale: The color
#11141cis a very deep, desaturated purple, darker than our existing--purple-900. Using--purple-950follows standard design system conventions for "almost black" shades.
