Salesforce

Salesforce's design-token palette, sourced from the public Salesforce Lightning Design System (SLDS) repository (`salesforce-ux/design-system`). Twelve chromatic families (Blue, Cloud Blue, Green, Hot Orange, Indigo, Orange, Pink, Purple, Red, Teal, Violet, Yellow) plus warm-gray and cool-gray neutrals. Each family runs 10 → 95 in non-uniform stops; the 10/15/20-band is the darkest, the 90/95-band is the lightest. The documented Salesforce brand-primary color resolves to Palette Blue 50 (#0176D3) — the canonical SLDS interactive blue that ships in the Aloha and Lightning themes. Warm Gray is Salesforce's default neutral scale; Cool Gray is the alternate.

Notes
SLDS's `BRAND_PRIMARY` token resolves to PALETTE_BLUE_50 (#0176D3); `BRAND_PRIMARY_ACTIVE` resolves to PALETTE_BLUE_50 again under the renamed alias (the older guidance had it at blue-30); `BRAND_LIGHT` is `#F4F6FE`. The catalogue captures the anchor stops (20 / 50 / 60 / 90 / 95) across each chromatic family and the full Warm Gray scale that drives canvas, surface, and text.
