A terminal theme tuned for prose, not syntax highlighting

Short summary

Developer created Klein Void, a terminal theme family for Claude Code optimized for reading dense prose instead of syntax highlighting. Uses APCA contrast verification with Yves Klein's IKB pigment across four variations, each balancing brand color differently. Shipped as open-source macOS Terminal.app profiles with automated installation, font setup, and rollback scripts.
