Automated Brand Color Contrast Checks
Every Monday, WebRun opens Adobe Color, takes the hex values from your saved themes and Creative Cloud library, runs the contrast checker over each text and background pairing plus the color blind safe check, pings Telegram when a pairing fails, and posts the full table to Microsoft Teams.
How do I check my brand color palette passes contrast requirements?
WebRun opens Adobe Color every Monday, takes the hex values from your saved themes, and runs the contrast checker over each text against background pairing plus the color blind safe check. It pings Telegram when a pairing fails and posts the full pass or fail table to Microsoft Teams before the palette ships.
- Failing color pairs are named before they reach a live page
- Every theme carries a weekly pass or fail record
- The design channel sees the same table the designer does

WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it change my saved themes?
No. WebRun only reads the hex values from your themes and library and runs the checks Adobe Color provides. Editing or replacing a color stays with the designer.
Which checks does it actually run?
It uses the contrast checker in Adobe Color on each text against background pairing, plus the color blind safe check on each theme, and reports exactly what those tools return.
Will it ping me every week?
No. The Telegram note only fires when a pairing fails or a theme flags a conflict. The full pass or fail table still goes to Microsoft Teams every Monday either way.
