The brand guide names #FCFAEB as the page background, but the site rendered on plain white — the layout <body> hard-coded bg-white. Add a single --color-canvas theme token (the one place to change it) and point the <body> at bg-canvas, so the whole site canvas now matches the brand guide. Public pages that fell through to the white body now show cream; per-page content wrappers are unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
