• src/tools/optimize-for-accessibility.ts:69-327 (handler)

  Core handler function that validates input palette and use cases, optimizes colors for accessibility using WCAG standards while optionally preserving hue, generates optimization results, recommended pairings, and compliance summaries.

• src/tools/optimize-for-accessibility.ts:12-64 (schema)

  TypeScript interfaces defining the input parameters (OptimizeForAccessibilityParams), per-color optimization results (ColorOptimizationResult), and full response structure (OptimizeForAccessibilityResponse).

  Helper function that optimizes a single color for a specific use case, calculating contrast improvements, compliance, and hue preservation metrics.
