docs(agent): Latitude QA 2026-07-04 — media keys PASS, swaync contrast bug filed

- HARDWARE-QUEUE: media keys + touchpad gestures (dccceb4) checked off
  — verified working on the Latitude 5410 by Bernardo.
- BACKLOG item 25 (NOW): swaync text unreadable on summer-day. Traced:
  swaync.nix pairs @subtext on @base, but summer-day (and flexoki-light)
  use subtext as text-ON-surface (== base), and summer-day also has
  surface == text — self-colored body text and buttons.

+### 25. swaync text unreadable on summer-day (light-theme contrast)
+Reported: on summer-day, notification/control-centre text is invisible
+(contrast). Root cause (traced 2026-07-04): swaync.nix renders `.body`
+as `@subtext` on `alpha(@base, 0.95)` — but in summer-day (and
+flexoki-light) `subtext` *equals/≈ base* because those palettes use
+`surface` as a dark contrast surface and `subtext` as text-*on*-surface,
+not "dimmer text" (catppuccin-latte-style). summer-day also has
+`surface == text` (#5c6a72), so `.widget-title > button`
+(@surface bg, @text fg) is self-colored too. Fix direction: swaync.nix
+should pair roles that contrast by construction — `muted` (dim-text
+role in every palette) for body text on @base, and button fg that
+contrasts @surface (`subtext` is arguably the *right* role there) —
+or normalize the palette semantics across the light themes; audit the
+other `@subtext`/`@surface` consumers (waybar css, rofi) for the same
+mispairing before choosing. **Verify:** V1 + a contrast assert over all
+themes (text≠bg for each swaync pairing); V2 themed-VM screenshot with
+a `notify-send`; V3 re-check on the Latitude.
