Preview Execution monitoring

We're building live execution health for every listing: tool-call success rate, median latency, uptime, and last-checked timestamps, measured, not self-reported. It isn't live yet, so we don't show numbers we can't stand behind.

Best Practices

Color Guidelines

Use 6-8 data colors - Enough for variety, not overwhelming
Ensure contrast - 4.5:1 minimum for accessibility
Consistent semantics - Red=bad, Green=good across report
Consider colorblindness - Use patterns or labels too

Typography Guidelines

Limit font families - 1-2 maximum
Use system fonts - Segoe UI, Arial for consistency
Establish hierarchy - Titles > Headers > Body
Readable sizes - Minimum 10pt for data labels

Visual Defaults

Remove unnecessary elements - Hide borders, shadows by default
Consistent spacing - Same padding/margins
Align to grid - Use consistent positions
Default titles on - Help users understand visuals

Boundaries and Constraints

DO

Test themes across all visual types
Verify accessibility (contrast ratios)
Document color meanings
Keep color count manageable
Test on different screen sizes

DO NOT

Don't use too many colors (max 8-10)
Avoid low contrast combinations
Don't mix font families excessively
Avoid theme-breaking individual visual formats
