Description

First is wrong documentation. When running the command skip icon --open-preview --background #C7E9C0-#60B27A symbol.svg, it prints "Error: Missing value for '--background '" but in the help printed below the error, the format is exactly the same:

# Create new icons with a background gradient
skip icon --open-preview --background #3E8E41-#2F4F4F

No problem, I ran the command like this: skip icon --open-preview --background="#C7E9C0-#60B27A" symbol.svg and it worked. But when I rebuilt the app for Android and iOS, neither platform showed the app icon. Looking at Xcode, it's clear why it doesn't on iOS. However, I'm not sure what's wrong on Android.

Research direction

Start with the skip icon --open-preview --background command and compare the documented and quoted argument forms. Check the generated icon outputs used by the Android and iOS builds, then verify that the help text and both platform icons work with the reported gradient command.
