   CYBER KENDRA — Refresh layer (v2.1)
   Loaded last. Re-tunes typography, spacing and neutrals to a calm,
   "help-center" reading style: Google Sans Flex, 16px base, generous
   whitespace, hairlines instead of boxes, one blue for links.
   Brand colour (--clr-primary, from Theme Options) is kept for accents.
