This is great work!, but now the Agora controls specification is out-of-date while remaining a lot more detailed. Iteration 5 for Flow uses different colors, and e.g. Flow's plain white [ Reply ] button has different height and margin than the Agora spec's equivalent [ Other Actions] button. May Tee confirmed this. I reluctantly agree with her that updating the Agora controls spec in tandem with these rapid Flow iterations would be a ton of work, so https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/File:Agora_specs.pdf now warns it's out of date.

Engineers should maintain a split in the Flow CSS between discussion CSS and "mediawiki.ui override CSS", but the lack of clarity over what's a Flow design and what's core Agora means the Flow extension is almost guaranteed *NOT* to deliver a new consistent UI for MediaWiki. I'll be adding more screenshots to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Inconsistent_buttons :-(
