   XAI Today — editorial news-advertorial design tokens
   Paper-white + ink + single trust-green accent. Mobile-first. 680px column.
   Load fonts: Playfair Display (display) + Inter (body) + JetBrains Mono (code)

   FILE OWNERSHIP
   - style.css   : tokens, reset, base type, layout primitives, shared atoms
                   (.btn, .badge, .disclaimer, .divider, .visually-hidden),
                   and every advertorial (index.php) section.
   - guide.css   : member-area (guide.php) layout only. It relies on the
                   :root tokens AND the shared atoms defined here, so
                   guide.php MUST load style.css BEFORE guide.css:
