archvillainette 5d37548da0 fix: keep gold btn-primary plate on topic Reply button (#35)
The `.topic-sidebar-tools .btn` flattening override also hit the Reply button (`btn-primary` in harmony's reply-button partial), turning it grey. Exclude `btn-primary` so Reply keeps the theme's gold plate.

Every surface is dark and plush. Gold appears as thin edges, rulings, and small marks of importance — the way gilt survives on an old book long after the leather has gone dark. Nothing is bright. Nothing is flat. Depth comes from fabric and candlelight, not from floating cards. It is a working forum first: text stays readable, focus stays visible, and the atmosphere never taxes reading.",
