/* ============================================================================
   AIToolsay — Author box (§AAB)                           redesigned 2026-09-23
   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Markup: components/resources/views/partials/author-box.blade.php, rendered
   by components/public/premium-article.blade.php under every premium article
   (blog posts, tool / static pages with a body, AI news).

   ONE design with the author profile (§AAP, assets/css/author-profile.css):
   the same tokens (values mirrored from its §0 — change both together), the
   home-hero sky, orbit + conic avatar ring, accent-gradient surname, house
   eyebrow, brand pill buttons, tone-plate stats and the same hover language.

   LAYOUT answers to the box's OWN width (container queries), not the
   viewport: the box sits in article columns of very different widths (a
   9/12 column beside the blog sidebar, a full-width news story), so a
   viewport breakpoint would be wrong in one of them.
       < 700px   stacked and centred; stats 2 × 2
       ≥ 700px   avatar | copy, stats as a 4-up strip underneath
       ≥ 1080px  avatar | copy | stats as a 2 × 2 panel on the right

   SPECIFICITY — the traps this file is written around:
     · custom.ltr.css styles h1–h6 at (0,2,2): the name is `.aab-h`, styled
       at (0,4,0).
     · floating-widgets paints `.card a:hover` #2060C0 at (0,2,1), and this
       box lives INSIDE the content `.card` — every link here sets its own
       hover colour at (0,3,0)+.
     · custom.ltr.css gives every a/button a focus ring at (0,2,2) and, in
       light mode, `border-radius:6px` at (0,3,2); premium-article.css adds
       its own (0,2,0) ring with an 8px radius. §9 answers all three at
       (0,3,2)/(0,4,1) and restores each element's own radius via --aab-fr.
