/* HomeChargerGuide "Flow" design system: assets/flow/flow.css
   Ported from the approved mock (holly/design/hcg-brand/d6-mashup/styles.css, 23 Oct 2026).
   One stylesheet for every rebuilt page. No framework, no build step.
   The gradient is a scale, not decoration: teal = cheapest (smart overnight),
   blue = standard home rate, violet = public charging.
   Pattern library with copy-ready markup: assets/flow/components.html (noindex, not linked).
   Owner: the Flow foundation (tools/flow_shell.py stamps header, footer and sprite). */
