If you're referring to ["reify a color value"](https://drafts.css-houdini.org/css-typed-om-1/#reify-color) and similar algorithms, those are how to do it, but not *when*. For example, the `color` property is specced but doesn't call that algorithm: > [color](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-color-4/#propdef-color) > For both specified and computed values: > 1. If the value is currentcolor, [reify an identifier](https://drafts.css-houdini.org/css-typed-om-1/#reify-an-identifier) from the value and return the result. > 2. Otherwise, reify as a [CSSStyleValue](https://drafts.css-houdini.org/css-typed-om-1/#cssstylevalue) and return the result. (Nothing actually calls "reify a color value". Same for transform values, though at least WPT tests those and they are expected to be returned.) -- GitHub Notification of comment by AtkinsSJ Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/css-houdini-drafts/issues/1159#issuecomment-3421533591 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
