These items are complete on main and will ship in v3.1.0 once the packages are published to npm.

Added

• Site-wide dark mode with persisted theme preference across docs, playground, and demo apps

Changed

• README, launch playbooks, and FAQ now reflect the real 426-browser-test matrix and the current 3.6KB core bundle size
• CI summaries were corrected to match the actual Node/browsers we run today (Linux + macOS, Node 22)

Fixed
