/*
  AXL Energy - black-and-white brutalist skin.
  Loaded AFTER Clarity (main_free.css + clarity.css).
  Replaces the Axial Labs warm-orange skin; this file is the only AXL Energy
  visual override. Do not load axial-labs.css alongside this.

  Typography stack (set once, inherited everywhere):
    display / body:  Montserrat, then system sans fallback
    mono / labels:   "JetBrains Mono", Consolas, "SF Mono", Menlo, monospace

  Palette (pure BW plus two neutral greys):
    --axl-bg:       #ffffff
    --axl-fg:       #000000
    --axl-muted:    #737373
    --axl-hairline: #e5e5e5
    --axl-ink:      #000000   (accent = full black, brutalist rule)

  All corners square. No gradients. No drop shadows. One hairline weight.
