Pinkzuna

A Zed editor theme inspired by the world's first virtual YouTuber, Kizuna AI.

Two variants — a warm, cheerful light theme and a cold, dramatic dark theme.

Variants

Pinkzuna Classic — Kizuna AI

Warm pinkish-white backgrounds, dark plum foreground, saturated pinks for syntax. Cheerful and bright — daytime Kizuna AI energy.

Pinkzuna Black — Black AI

Cold charcoal-black backgrounds, hot-pink syntax anchors, garnet strings. Dramatic and sharp — a tribute to Kizuna's dark doppelganger.

Installation

Via Zed Extension Marketplace (recommended)

Open Zed and press Cmd+Shift+X (macOS) / Ctrl+Shift+X (Linux) to open Extensions.
Search for Pinkzuna.
Click Install.
Open the theme selector: Cmd+K Cmd+T → choose Pinkzuna Classic or Pinkzuna Black.

Manual Installation

Clone or download this repository:

git clone https://github.com/memiux/pinkzuna-zed.git

Copy the theme file into your Zed themes directory:

cp pinkzuna-zed/themes/pinkzuna.json ~/.config/zed/themes/

Restart Zed (or reload the window).
Open the theme selector: Cmd+K Cmd+T → choose Pinkzuna Classic or Pinkzuna Black.

Recommended Icon Theme

Pairs beautifully with Charmed Icons.

Add to your settings.json:

"icon_theme": {
  "mode": "dark",
  "light": "Light Charmed Icons",
  "dark": "Soft Charmed Icons"
}

Quick Toggle with Profiles

Set up named profiles in settings.json to switch between Classic and Black in one command:

"profiles": {
  "Light": {
    "theme": "Pinkzuna Classic",
    "icon_theme": "Light Charmed Icons"
  },
  "Dark": {
    "theme": "Pinkzuna Black",
    "icon_theme": "Soft Charmed Icons"
  }
}

Toggle via the command palette: > switch profile.

Theme Overrides

Fine-tune specific tokens without leaving settings.json. These are the recommended overrides for bracket highlight visibility:

"theme_overrides": {
  "Pinkzuna Classic": {
    "editor.document_highlight.bracket_background": "#00A1A146"
  },
  "Pinkzuna Black": {
    "editor.document_highlight.bracket_background": "#FF5B6F60"
  }
}

Bond Affinity Tuner

The Bond Affinity Tuner is a standalone browser tool that lets you dial in your own saturation and lightness adjustments before exporting a customized theme JSON.

Opening the tuner

open bond-affinity-tuner.html   # macOS
xdg-open bond-affinity-tuner.html   # Linux

Or simply double-click bond-affinity-tuner.html in Finder / your file manager.

Using the tuner

Feature	Description
Theme tabs	Switch between Classic and Black at the top — each tab has independent slider state
Group sliders	8–9 color groups per theme (backgrounds, muted, text, pink, warm, etc.), each with S delta and L delta controls (±40)
Live preview	Mock Zed editor with tab bar, gutter, and syntax-highlighted Ruby updates in real time
Accent swatches	Displays the 8 `accents[]` colors for the active theme
Status bar	Shows git and diagnostic color samples
Copy JSON	Copies the adjusted theme to your clipboard
Download	Saves `pinkzuna.json` to your Downloads folder

Applying your custom theme

Click Download (or Copy JSON) in the tuner.

Place the downloaded file in ~/.config/zed/themes/:

cp ~/Downloads/pinkzuna.json ~/.config/zed/themes/

Reload Zed — your adjusted variant appears in the theme selector.

Note: themes/pinkzuna.json is generated output — edit colors only through the tuner, never directly in the JSON file.

Contributing

All color edits go through bond-affinity-tuner.html — never edit themes/pinkzuna.json directly.
After changing colors, update CLAUDE.md to keep it in sync with the tuner.
Use uppercase hex (#FF2266, not #ff2266) everywhere.
