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

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.
Compilation
Token works out of the box without compilation. For faster startup, you can pre-compile the theme into bytecode:
:TokenCompile
This writes compiled dark and light variants to stdpath('cache')/token/. On
next load the cached bytecode is used instead of the dynamic highlight path.
Rerun :TokenCompile after updating the plugin. If the cache becomes stale or
corrupt it is deleted automatically and the dynamic path is used as fallback.
