Alice Blue — 11-step color scale

Alice Blue (#f0f8ff) sits at 500, untouched. Every other step is Alice Blue composited over white or black at a decreasing opacity, so the whole ramp stays in one hue family instead of drifting toward another color at the ends.

Each step is the base composited over white or black at the opacity shown.#f0f8ff

For text that needs to pass AA on white, 800, 900, 950 clear the 4.5:1 line. On a dark surface, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700 do.

Semantic colors from Alice Blue

Success, warning, error and the rest are derived from Alice Blue itself, then checked so they stay distinguishable from the base — and from each other — under the three types of color blindness. The distance below is CIEDE2000 after each simulation.

Derived from #f0f8ff

Suggested	Protanopia	Deuteranopia	Tritanopia
success#8cbaa3	20.0	19.5	21.0
warning#cca589	25.8	25.7	31.1
error#d29f9d	21.5	21.4	30.7
discovery#97afd4	20.0	21.2	20.0
info#547f97	33.7	36.3	36.9
neutral#9da6af	19.8	20.0	19.9

CIEDE2000 distance from the base under each simulation. The lowest of the three decides, and a dot marks the ones that land under 11.

Every suggested color clears ΔE₀₀ 11 from Alice Blue under all three simulations, so nothing needed nudging — the family hues sit far enough from Alice Blue on their own.
