Derive, Optimise and Audit a Scientific Colour Palette from One Seed Colour

Generates sequential, diverging and categorical colour palettes from a single seed colour in OKLCH (the cylindrical lightness-chroma-hue representation of the Oklab perceptual colour space), with spacing measured by the CIEDE2000 colour-difference formula of the International Commission on Illumination. Audits every palette under simulated colour-vision deficiency, greyscale conversion, the standard Red Green Blue (sRGB) gamut and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) contrast. Colour-vision deficiency is simulated at severity 1.0 with the model of Machado, Oliveira and Fernandes (2009) ; the design rationale follows Crameri, Shephard and Heron (2020) . Mirrors the 'Python' reference implementation maintained in the same repository and is validated against shared parity fixtures. Thresholds are configurable design rules, not established accessibility cut-offs.
