…TL-182) Produce two lowercase wordmark candidates (A · sans from Inter, B · mono from JetBrains Mono) rendered as SVG paths, paired with the existing chevron mark. Add a "Wordmark candidates" section to brand.html that renders current + A + B side-by-side in both theme panels at 160 / 240 / 400 px widths for in-context comparison. Canonical assets/brand-v2/ files (wordmark.svg, lockup-horizontal.svg, lockup-stacked.svg, mono-black/white variants) left untouched. A follow-up ticket promotes the winning candidate and retires the loser. New files (under assets/brand-v2/candidates/ to keep them out of the canonical set): - wordmark-sans-a.svg viewBox 0 0 368 100 - lockup-horizontal-sans-a.svg viewBox 0 0 518 100 - wordmark-mono-b.svg viewBox 0 0 480 100 - lockup-horizontal-mono-b.svg viewBox 0 0 630 100 All candidate wordmarks use fill="currentColor" so they theme-switch via the panel's --color-accent, mirroring how the mark uses stroke="currentColor". Horizontal lockups keep the same mark (100×100 from viewBox 0 0 64 64) + 50-unit gap convention as lockup-horizontal.svg. Operator review path: Cloudflare Pages branch preview → /mockups/brand.html, scroll to "Wordmark candidates" section, pick A, B, or "neither".

Adds a third lowercase wordmark candidate to the review set: a Departure Mono-inspired pixelated/bitmap monospace treatment of "catalyst". 5-col × 10-row bitmap per glyph, 10-unit pixel, viewBox height matched to sans-a and mono-b so the three render at matched scale when height-normalized. Files: - assets/brand-v2/candidates/wordmark-pixel-c.svg (viewBox 0 0 480 100) - assets/brand-v2/candidates/lockup-horizontal-pixel-c.svg (viewBox 0 0 630 100) Both use fill=currentColor so they theme-switch with the panel like candidates A and B.
Adds a third row to the "Wordmark candidates" section alongside
Current / A · sans / B · mono:
C · pixel mono — 5×10 pixel bitmap, Departure Mono-inspired,
viewBox 0 0 480 100 (wordmark) / 0 0 630 100 (lockup)
Row shows wordmark alone (320 px), horizontal lockup (400 px), and
lockup at 160 / 240 / 400 px — same stack as A and B, in both dark
and light theme panels (light mirrors from dark via brand.js at init).
Caption text updated from "two lowercase candidates" → "three ...".
Eyebrow updated from "pick A or B" → "pick A, B, or C".
A and B rows, the canonical brand set, and all other brand assets are
untouched.

Summary
Design iteration for CTL-182 — produce two lowercase wordmark candidates (sans + mono) and render them alongside the current drawn wordmark on the brand showcase so the operator can compare at real use-sizes and pick a winner.
Do not auto-merge. The operator picks A or B (or "neither — try again") via the Cloudflare Pages branch preview. A follow-up ticket promotes the winning candidate and retires the loser.

fill="currentColor"— no hardcoded amber — so they inherit--color-accentfrom the enclosing panel and theme-switch like the mark does. Mono tracking is inherently wider than sans, which is why the mono lockup is 630 units wide vs sans at 518.brand.html changes
