The theme is too light in the desktop app. look at the theme of RuDS (same gitea instance and available in ../RuDS on the dev machine) to make it much darker and more in line with dark mode.

Implemented and verified in commit 8188675.

Replaced the stock Iced dark theme with one centralized neutral-charcoal application palette modeled on the RuDS shared-theme approach and refined against the supplied Codex screenshot.
Applied the same named base, surface, hover, border, text, and focus colors to entry and utility surfaces while preserving distinct primary, focus, success, warning, and danger semantics.
Added regression coverage for the application palette and shared utility-panel styling.

Verification:

cargo fmt --all -- --check
RUSTFLAGS="-D warnings" cargo check --workspace --all-targets
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
cargo test --workspace
cargo bundle-macos
Computer Use validation of the Release app in normal and command-palette focus states against the supplied Codex visual reference

No iPhone code changed, so simulator and paired-iPhone deployment were not applicable.
