How to fix YAML highlighting in sublime text

Raw

Call Preferences => Customize Color Scheme—then add this between the square brackets under "rules":

        {
            "name": "Mapping Key Names",
            "scope": "meta.mapping.key string",
            "foreground": "var(red)"
        }

You can also use a variable from your theme to match colors (the variables are on the left panel when you open "Customize Color Scheme"):

{
    "name": "Mapping Key Names",
    "scope": "meta.mapping.key string",
    "foreground": "var(red)" # <---------- this
}
