Description

Report View message colors use generic non-Catppuccin values, and critical message types (errors, log messages) are not recorded by default. The report view also doesn't auto-show on errors or warnings, meaning users silently miss failures.

Color Alignment

Map message colors to Catppuccin Mocha semantic palette:

Message Type Current Proposed
Normal messages Generic gray Text #cdd6f4
Log messages Generic teal Teal #94e2d5
Warnings Generic yellow Yellow #f9e2af
Errors Generic red Red #f38ba8

Default Changes

Setting Current Proposed Rationale
Record error messages Off On Errors should always be recorded — this is a usability bug
Record log messages Off On Log messages are essential for debugging
Show report view on error Off On Users must see when something fails
Show report view on warning Off On Warnings indicate potential problems
Include timecode On On Keep — already correct

Component: resources/preferences/
