Each theme sets the gradient colors for ASCII art, the primary and accent palette for menus and borders, the spinner style, and the success/error indicator colors.

All 10 Themes
Cyberpunk
Default theme. Cyan primary, hot-pink secondary, deep-purple accent. Rounded borders. High-contrast neon palette on a near-black background. Inspired by terminal aesthetics of the 1980s science fiction genre.
Fire
Amber primary, deep-orange secondary, bright-yellow accent. Heavy borders. Warm gradient from gold to red in the logo. Best on dark terminal backgrounds.
Graffiti
Yellow primary, hot-pink secondary, sky-blue accent. Single-line borders. Three-stop gradient (yellow → pink → cyan) in the ASCII logo. High-energy, street-art palette.
Futuristic
Periwinkle primary, lavender secondary, mint accent. Rounded borders. Soft blue-purple gradient. A quieter high-tech look for extended work sessions.
Ocean
Sky-blue primary, seafoam secondary, teal accent. Rounded borders. Three-stop gradient (sky-blue → seafoam → deep-blue) in the logo. Cool and easy on the eyes.
Aurora
Bright-green primary, cyan secondary, violet accent. Rounded borders. Three-stop gradient (green → cyan → purple) that mimics northern lights. Vibrant but balanced.
Sunset
Warm-orange primary, hot-pink secondary, golden-yellow accent. Heavy borders. Three-stop gradient (red-orange → gold → pink) in the logo. Rich warm palette.
Monochrome
Light-gray primary, mid-gray secondary, white accent. Single-line borders. Two-stop gradient (gray → white). Clean and minimal — reduces visual noise during long sessions.
Rainbow
Cyan primary, magenta secondary, yellow accent. Rounded borders. Six-stop full-spectrum gradient across the logo. Maximum color expression.
Dracula
Soft-purple primary, pink secondary, light-blue accent. Rounded borders. Two-stop gradient (purple → pink). Based on the popular Dracula color scheme with its near-black highlight background.

Disabling Colors
If you are running CC Commander in a CI/CD pipeline, a log aggregator, or a terminal that does not support ANSI codes, disable all color output:CC_NO_COLOR=1 suppresses all ANSI escape codes — gradients, theme colors, spinner animations, and status bar formatting. The output is plain text suitable for logging.
CC_NO_ANIMATION=1 disables spinners and gradient animations but preserves static color if you want colored output without moving parts.
