17         theme, but the root <html>/<body> are pinned brand-dark in index.css.
18         Without this, a hard load to /dashboard paints a dark frame before
19         React mounts and applies the light wrapper. Mirror the provider's
20         resolution order (?theme= > stored > route default) and add a
21         `dashboard-light` class so CSS lifts the root to slate-50 on first
22         paint. Marketing routes are untouched and stay dark. -->
