This tool offers optional prompts to record color choices, sources, culture, context, contrast, legibility, use rights, testing, alternatives, and unknowns without assigning universal personality, emotion, audience, or business meanings to colors. Its fields are prompts, not findings, requirements, professional advice, or a complete model of the situation.
Use the client's own words. Separate direct observations and sources from interpretations, assumptions, predictions, and unknowns. Any field can be renamed, reordered, repeated, left blank, revisited, or discarded.
Optional coaching reflection, not therapy, diagnosis, medical care, a validated assessment, or business, financial, tax, accounting, investment, legal, employment, or relationship advice. Skip, adapt, or stop. Do not infer a cause, condition, trait, motive, truth, score, risk, priority, or required response from an answer, blank, label, difficulty, repetition, or estimate. Preserve privacy, consent, access, culture, power, context, and uncertainty; use qualified or emergency support for unsafe, severe, or out-of-scope concerns.
Use any field in any order. Rename, repeat, skip, or stop.
Color values, usage context, and version.
What job may it serve, and what evidence supports that?
Direct research or feedback separated from assumptions.
Text, controls, charts, print, dark mode, and relevant standards.
Use any field in any order. Rename, repeat, skip, or stop.
Labels, shapes, patterns, alt text, and other non-color cues.

What else could fit, including no color change?
Accessible prototype, consented research, qualified review, defer, or no action.
What is directly observed, what remains interpreted or unknown, and which optional question, support, referral, experiment, or no next step feels useful?
