Owner

Rituals ships on Apple platforms (iOS / iPadOS / macOS, with visionOS + watchOS surface hints in forgeblock.yml) and needs a bespoke app icon built to Apple's Human Interface Guidelines — not a shrunk wordmark.

Reference: Apple Design Resources & icon templates → https://developer.apple.com/design/resources/ (grab the current App Icon templates + Icon Composer, Xcode 16).

Deliverables

1024×1024 master, square, no baked corner radius, no alpha (the system masks to the superellipse).
Layered appearances (iOS 18 / macOS Sequoia): Light, Dark, and Tinted (monochrome) — please provide all three. The tinted/grayscale version must still read at small sizes.
macOS variant inset within the rounded-rect margin per Apple's macOS grid.
Optional but welcome if the surfaces ship: watchOS (circular) and visionOS (layered/parallax).
Format: Apple Icon Composer .icon (preferred) or the layered template (PDF/PNG per appearance), plus a flattened 1024 PNG for previews.

Brand direction

Rituals = warm ceremony, not a SaaS glyph. Lead with the coral primary #C05734, gold accent #E1B659 / consent gold #F3CA40, on a deep cocoa ground. Draw a ritual/ceremony motif that harmonizes with the existing Rituals mark in Brand/exports/logos/Rituals/ — but designed as an icon (bold, centered, legible at 40px), not a downscaled logo. No OpenMoji/emoji stand-ins.

Done when

Icon set drops into the Rituals app's asset catalog and renders correctly in light, dark, and tinted modes across the target platforms.
