The dashboard's payload mix colored its bars by rank, so a packet type's color changed whenever the traffic order did, and disagreed with the multibyte chart further down, which colors the same types by a fixed slot. The sixth rank was also #198754, the status green. Payload types now take their fixed slot from the chart's SERIES_PALETTE, per theme, so each type has one color everywhere on the page. The role mix gives each role a fixed color matching the Mesh page's node fills: repeaters Signal Blue, room servers Route Teal, then companion orange, sensor violet, bot pink, gateway cyan. Unknown and Other stay neutral, any other role takes a spare, and none of these colors is a lamp.
Real-time hashed channel names onto the whole hue wheel, so a channel could come out status green or alarm red; Public was green. Channel dots now draw from 20 colors per theme, ten hues kept clear of the lamp red, amber and green at two lightness steps, each holding 3:1 on the card (4.2:1 light, 5.2:1 dark). A channel starts at its hashed slot, so its color stays the same between visits. If another channel on the page already holds that slot it steps 7 slots on, a clearly different hue, so up to 20 channels never share a color; with a plain hash, two of three channels on the test mesh collided.
DESIGN.md's data-palette section describes both.
