You need a status light that shows more than one colour and you don't want to wire up a separate driver for each channel. This 5mm RGB LED does the cycling for you. Plug it in, power it, and it steps through the spectrum on its own. Clear lens keeps the output bright at 2000–5000mcd depending on the active colour. Standard 5mm footprint drops straight into a breadboard, a panel cutout, or a small enclosure. No extra IC required for basic cycling use
