A DeepSeek Chat-style blue-whale color skin. Light and dark follow the built-in appearance.
DSH ships as a black whale. chat.deepseek.com is a blue one. This plugin puts Chat blue #4D6BFE on the wordmark, hero fish, tab favicon, and primary actions. Light / dark / follow-system stay on the built-in Appearance setting.
