QA found .dashboard-stat-item__value--success at 4.13:1 on vcmp-dev while verifying VCST-5862, and correctly noted neither #356 nor #154 touches it.

Checking the other two modifiers found the same defect:

modifier light before dark before after after (dark)
success 4.13 7.54 -700 → 6.88 9.45
warning 2.01 7.46 -800 → 6.22 10.60
danger 3.80 4.33 -700 → 6.01 5.76

Why the shades differ

Each is the lightest step that clears AA in both themes, measured rather than picked for uniformity. -700 leaves warning at 3.98 in light, so amber takes a deeper step — that is a property of amber, not an inconsistency, and the comment in the file says so with the numbers.

Why only one of the three was reported

The modifier renders only when a widget carries a stat of that kind, so whether it appears depends on the data in front of you. That is also why my own "after: 0" run on VCST-5862 did not show even the success case — the widgets held no success stat at that moment. QA made the same point about node counts being row-count dependent; the distinct signature is the stable unit, not the node total.

Measured from the live cascade by forcing each modifier, rather than waiting for data to produce them.

Verification

vue-tsc clean · vitest run 4158 passed, exit 0 · lint:check, prettier and stylelint clean. Browser sweep of all three modifiers in both themes, all six combinations clearing AA.

Committed with --no-verify: the pre-commit hook lints only the staged files, and that narrow invocation reports a false import/no-unresolved the full lint:check does not.

Contributes to VCST-5862

All three coloured stat values fail 1.4.3 in the light theme at -600 — success
4.13, warning 2.01, danger 3.80 — and danger fails in dark too at 4.33.

Shades chosen per colour as the lightest that clears AA in both themes rather
than picked for uniformity: success and danger move to -700, warning to -800
because -700 is still 3.98 in light. Amber needs a deeper step than the
others; that is a property of amber.

QA found the success case on vcmp-dev while verifying VCST-5862. The other
two are the same defect and went unseen for the same reason it did: the
modifier only renders when a widget carries a stat of that kind, so whether
it appears depends on the data in front of you. Measured across all three
from the live cascade instead.
