The coffeylabs theme brings coffeylabs.org's palette, type and blueprint grid to Mastodon. It loads the stock stylesheet and then overrides Mastodon's color tokens for both color schemes, adds Bricolage Grotesque and JetBrains Mono (OFL, served from the instance), and replaces the navigation wordmark. The default theme stays available to users. Small upstream changes, each with a modification notice: themes.yml registers the theme, themes.rb sets the dark browser-bar color, and the Dockerfile takes SOURCE_BASE_URL and SOURCE_TAG so "View source code" points at this repository, as the AGPL expects. Upstream's GitHub workflows are removed. .gitea/workflows/ci.yml builds the image on every change and publishes it, with a release, from tags named v<upstream>-coffeylabs.<n>. COFFEYLABS.md lists every change.

Coffey Labs build of Mastodon
This repository is Mastodon with one addition: the coffeylabs theme, the palette, type and blueprint grid of coffeylabs.org. It is what runs on linuxexpert.org. Everything else is upstream Mastodon, unchanged, under the same license (AGPL-3.0, see LICENSE).
How it tracks upstream
Upstream releases come in as snapshots, not as a merged history: the
upstream branch holds one unmodified "Import Mastodon vX.Y.Z" commit per
release, and each import is merged into main through a pull request.
What is changed
Added (new files, Coffey Labs, 2026-10-06):
app/javascript/styles/coffeylabs.scssandapp/javascript/styles/coffeylabs/-- the theme. It loads the stock stylesheet, then overrides Mastodon's color tokens and adds the fonts and surfaces. Users can still pick Mastodon's default theme in their appearance preferences.app/javascript/fonts/coffeylabs/-- Bricolage Grotesque and JetBrains Mono, both under the SIL Open Font License (license files alongside)..gitea/workflows/ci.yml-- builds the image on every change and publishes it from release tags.- This file.
Modified (each carries a notice at the top):
config/themes.yml-- registers the coffeylabs theme.app/lib/themes.rb-- the dark browser-bar color matches the theme.Dockerfile--SOURCE_BASE_URLandSOURCE_TAGbuild arguments, so the "View source code" link points at this repository.
Removed: upstream's .github/workflows, which run upstream's own CI.
Releases
A tag named v<upstream>-coffeylabs.<n> (e.g. v4.7.3-coffeylabs.1)
publishes the mastodon image for linux/amd64 to this repository's
packages. The streaming server is unchanged, so use upstream's
mastodon-streaming image at the same upstream version.
