Ghost White — 11-step color scale

Ghost White (#f8f8ff) sits at 500, untouched. Every other step is Ghost White 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.#f8f8ff

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 Ghost White

Success, warning, error and the rest are derived from Ghost White 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 #f8f8ff

Suggested	Protanopia	Deuteranopia	Tritanopia
success#8cbaa3	19.9	19.5	24.0
warning#cea38d	24.8	24.3	27.4
error#c9a0ba	20.1	17.7	25.6
discovery#9eadd5	20.8	22.0	21.2
info#80b9c1	16.2	19.2	26.3
neutral#9d9daf	22.5	22.7	22.2

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 Ghost White under all three simulations, so nothing needed nudging — the family hues sit far enough from Ghost White on their own.
