Color Palette
Overview
This skill provides a comprehensive color gradient viewer for terminals, displaying 78 vertical color gradients using both ANSI 256 colors and True Color (24-bit RGB). Use it to help users visualize and choose colors for terminal configurations, shell prompts, or any ANSI color selection.
When to Use
- User asks to see color options, gradients, or palettes
- User needs to pick a color for terminal/shell configuration
- User mentions Powerlevel10k, zsh themes, oh-my-zsh, or prompt colors
- User wants to compare ANSI 256 vs True Color (RGB) options
- User asks about terminal color codes or ANSI escape sequences
Quick Start
To show all 78 color gradients vertically:
python scripts/color_gradients.py
The script displays:
- ANSI 256 gradients (19 gradients): Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, Purple, Magenta, Pink, Earth tones, Grayscale, Rainbow, Pastel
- True Color RGB gradients (49 gradients): Smooth color ramps, color families (Teal, Sky Blue, Aquamarine, Turquoise, etc.), Neon variants, Sunset/Sunrise, Fire/Ice, Matrix/Terminal styles
Each gradient shows the text "12:17:00 AM" in that color with the color code on the right:
← 256:N for ANSI 256 colors← rgb(R,G,B) for True Color
Color Code Reference
ANSI 256 (256 colors):
\033[38;5;{N}m where N = 0-255
True Color (16.7 million colors):
\033[38;2;{R};{G};{B}m where R,G,B each = 0-255
Scripts
scripts/color_gradients.py
The main color gradient viewer. Run with:
python scripts/color_gradients.py
Output is vertical (one color per line) for easy comparison. Each gradient is numbered (#1/78, #2/78, etc.) for reference.
