Before: the on-sky lockup had a dark mark with dark cutouts — the fold V-shape disappeared because the cutouts matched the mark colour instead of the sky backdrop. Same on cream. Now three per-surface mark variants, cutouts coloured to match the expected background so it shows through: mark.svg sky body + navy cutouts → dark panel mark-on-sky.svg navy body + sky cutouts → sky-blue surface mark-on-light.svg navy body + cream cutouts → light surface Logo lockups rebuilt the same way: logo-horizontal-on-sky.svg uses the dark+sky mark variant, logo-horizontal-light.svg uses the dark+cream mark variant, same for stacked. Branding page's on-sky / on-light preview cells repointed at the new variants. addon.json bumped to 0.2.6 (same mark, re-emitted from pipeline for byte parity with the sites).

<h2>The name</h2>
|
||
<p>In English the product is <b>Hermes</b> — after the Greek god of messengers,
|
||
travellers, and crossings. In modern Greek the same name is <b>Ermis</b>
|
||
(Ἑρμῆς). Written form is always Hermes outside Greek contexts.</p>
|
||
<p>The keyboard shortcut inside Theseus is <code class="inline">Ctrl+Shift+E</code>
|
||
— E for Ermis, off the collision path with Chrome's own Ctrl+Shift+M.</p>

||
<h2>The mark</h2>
|
||
<p class="lede">A tilted winged envelope — a letter mid-flight. Vector, scales
|
||
cleanly from favicon to hero. Ships as one SVG with the sky-blue fill plus
|
||
dark inner cutouts for the flap V-fold.</p>
