token

Token is a warm, muted Neovim 0.12+ colorscheme that is written in Lua. Dark and light variants, no configuration. There is no setup function. Load it and it works. The idea is simple: a theme you never configure is a theme you stop thinking about.

Terminal themes for Ghostty, fish, delta, tmux and others are generated from the same palette file, so everything matches without extra work.

Features

• Dark and light variants, switching at runtime via vim.o.background
• Treesitter capture groups for accurate syntax highlighting
• LSP semantic token highlights
• LSP diagnostic signs, virtual text, and underlines
• Diff highlights for buffers and signs
• Legacy syntax group coverage for non-Treesitter filetypes
• Terminal color support (ANSI colors 0–15)
• Lualine theme included
• Contrib themes for terminal tools generated from the same palette

Showcase

Dark	Light

Install

-- vim.pack (Neovim 0.12+)
vim.pack.add('https://github.com/ThorstenRhau/token')

-- lazy.nvim
{ 'ThorstenRhau/token' }

Usage

vim.cmd.colorscheme('token')

Respects vim.o.background. Set dark or light before loading the colorscheme, or change it at runtime to switch variants.
