text_plain

Single-line body text in the theme text colour, no decoration. The quiet default for any Text payload — pick text_ascii for a hero block, or list_plain when the fetcher emits a TextBlock.

Key	Description
text	Primary body text colour for plain renderers (text_plain, text_ascii, list_plain, animated_typewriter). The top step of the chrome ladder — brighter than text_secondary, reads as diffuse daylight on the ocean surface. Set text = "reset" to inherit the terminal's own foreground instead.
