Warm: 'Thanks for trusting me with the idea. Let us make the next step feel clear and manageable.',
Direct: 'Send the goal, budget, and timeline. I will reply with the cleanest path forward.'
}
return <main style={{fontFamily:'system-ui', padding:24, background:'#101014', color:'white', minHeight:'100%'}}> <h2>Client reply tone</h2><div style={{display:'flex', gap:8, margin:'16px 0'}}>{Object.keys(copy).map((item) => <button key={item} onClick={() => setTone(item)} style={{border:'1px solid #444', color:'white', background:item===tone?'#e20074':'transparent', borderRadius:8, padding:'8px 12px'}}>{item}</button>)}</div><p style={{fontSize:20, lineHeight:1.5}}>{copy[tone]}</p></main>
