Prompt for your coding agent

Paste it with your chart's code. It restyles your data to match this chart.

Restyle my chart in the "Sensory Panel" style described below. Keep my data, chart type, title meaning and units; change only the presentation. Use the charting library this project already uses (plain SVG if there is none). If the library can't express a detail, draw it in a custom layer instead of dropping it. Measurements assume a 960 x 600 chart; scale them proportionally.

Mood: a chocolatier's tasting report. Deep burgundy-black, elegant hairline serif for the headline, soft confectionery colors, calm and luxurious but fully readable.

Colors (use these exact values):
- Page: #1F1418 (burgundy-black).
- Series, in order: #EDE0C8 (cream), #D0788C (rose), #CDAA52 (soft gold).
- Primary text: #F3E9EC. Secondary text: #A8949A. Gridlines and row dividers: #34252B.

Typography (Google Fonts):
- Italiana 400 for the title only, 32px #F3E9EC, stating the finding.
- Jost for everything else: eyebrow 11.5px 500 uppercase with 2.6px letter-spacing in #A8949A; subtitle 15px 400 #A8949A; legend 13.5px 500; category labels 15.5px 500 #F3E9EC; value labels 12px 600 in the series color; tick labels 12.5px #A8949A; "MIDPOINT" 10px 500 with 1.8px letter-spacing; source 12px.

Layout:
- 56px margins. Eyebrow at y 48, title at y 94, subtitle at y 122, legend at y 140 aligned with the bar start (22 x 8 swatches with 1.5px radius).
- Category labels in a left column from x 56; bars from x 250 to 860.
- Groups 48px tall, separated by 0.8px #34252B hairlines that start at the left margin.

Axes and grid:
- Vertical 0.8px #34252B gridlines at each scale point (1.2px at zero), tick labels 20px below the last group.
- The scale midpoint is a 1px #F3E9EC dashed line (3 on, 3 off) at 35% opacity, labeled "MIDPOINT" under its tick.

Marks:
- Bar chart: grouped horizontal bars, 12px tall with 3px gaps, starting at zero, with 2px rounding on the right end only. Mean values at the bar ends, 7px past the end, one decimal, in the series color.
- Line chart: 2.5px lines in the three series colors with smooth monotone curves, solid r 4 dots with a 2px page-color ring, values in Jost 12px 600 above the last point, the same dashed midpoint as a horizontal reference, and 0.8px #34252B horizontal gridlines.

Avoid: gradients, glows, bold serif, pure black, legends inside the plot, and truncating the scale.

When you're done, render the chart and check that the rose and gold bars are easy to tell apart, value labels do not collide with the next bar, the midpoint sits at the true middle of the scale, and the title's claims match the data.
