/* ==========================================================================
   CRC Cloud — main.css   (v6 · theme-elevation pass)
   Design system ported from knowledge-base/wireframe-brand-board.html.

   TWO real themes, toggled by html[data-theme]:
     · light  — signature light palette (default; no-JS falls back to this)
     · dark   — full immersive dark palette
   Heroes adapt to the active theme. The dark "feature band" (.secDark) and the
   footer stay dark in both themes on purpose — they are terminal accents.

   Every colour is a semantic token. :root carries the LIGHT set (so the page is
   fully styled with JS disabled); html[data-theme="dark"] overrides the set.

   Fonts: Space Grotesk (headings) + Inter (body) — loaded in partials/head.php.
   No frameworks. Mobile-first. WCAG AA. Print-friendly pricing.
   Added this pass: theme toggle · Services mega-menu · scroll-progress bar ·
   .storyArt narrative layout · refined mobile drawer. Reduced-motion safe.
