Workflow output has insufficient contrast on dark backgrounds #36

Description

Description

Text shown by workflow commands and the workflow progress panel uses low-emphasis foreground colors that are difficult to distinguish from a dark terminal background. Secondary content such as descriptions, paths, pending steps, timing, token usage, borders, and helper text can become faint enough that users must strain to read it.

The problem is especially noticeable in the progress panel because pending step names and row metadata are intentionally rendered with dim or muted theme roles. These styles create a useful visual hierarchy only while the content remains legible; in the affected theme, they reduce contrast too far.

Evidence

The muted row names and metadata in this wide-panel capture also illustrate the low-contrast styling:
