BE-043: work view — the ticket-worktree board under work/

Input

Context

The project root's work/ dir holds one worktree per ticket (Project item 5); no view lists them today, so tending the fleet means raw ls work/ plus hand-typed spells.

• A worktree's ORIGIN rides its .be FIRST line: <stamp> get <uri>, e.g. work/BE-041/.be → file:/home/gritzko/.be/?/beagle-ext, work/JS-115/.be → file:/home/gritzko/src/jab.be/.be/?/repo.
• //TIKT-123 is the worktree authority in context URIs (Project §Addressing).
• Models: BE-038 todo board (shape-routed rows, hidden U spells), BE-040 r3 / BE-041 button pairs (visible Y label + hidden O click spell), views/status/status.js sinkOut.

Goals

work lists all ticket worktrees under work/, one row each:

• the key TIKT-123 navigates — hidden U spell status //TIKT-123;
• [update] button — get-update from the orig tree (O spell; origin = .be line 1);
• [merge] button — merge into the orig tree as mounted under the current project (origin detected from the worktree's .be line 1);
• [diff] link — the worktree diff (diff //TIKT-123);
• a SAFETY GAP, then [rm -rf] — discard the worktree; needs a worktree-only remove verb, see BE-044.

Constraints

• Work-root discovery mirrors be.todoRoot(): the project root owning work/; NOTHING hardcoded.
• No absolute fs path ever reaches a token — word spells only (the BE-038 rule).
• .be line 1 parses via uri._parse, never regex/string surgery (work §NOT TO DO).

WIP

Design decisions

• RULING 2026-07-10: [update] O spell = get ///<orig-path> — the origin tree's mount path under the project root (//), detected from .be line 1.
• RULING 2026-07-10: [merge] O spell = post '<ticket title>' — the ticket page's own title as the one-line message (title via the shared ticket/todo page lookup).
• (pending) row extras: show the origin project and/or dirty/ahead state per worktree?
• RULING (chat 2026-07-18): bare work becomes the worktree FOREST view — spun off as WORK-001; the flat board's chrome is absorbed there.

TODOs

• work-root discovery (workDir() mirrors todo.js boardDir() over be.todoRoot())
• board rows: key + U nav + Y/O buttons + safety gap; rows = work/ subdirs owning a .be (the BE-044 gate), name-sorted; plain mode = bare keys, chrome pager-only
• .be first-line origin parse — reused wtlog.open({bePath}).anchor(), no new helper; project → mount path via a depth-first gitmodules.paths() walk (nested mounts join, e.g. be/test)
• [update] spell get ///<mount>; omitted when the origin mount doesn't resolve
• [merge] spell post '<title>' (title via todo.js pageFile/pageTitle, now exported); omitted when the ticket page doesn't resolve
• [diff] spell (F+U nav link)
• BE-044 worktree-only remove verb; the [rm -rf] button emits rm //KEY already
• repro test test/work/view/ (red-first; 3 fixture worktrees: direct mount, nested mount, orphan origin) → be-js-work-view green

Blockers and bummers

• worktree work/BE-043 holds the UNCOMMITTED change (views/work/work.js + a 2-line todo.js export + the test); suite there 170/174, all 4 reds reproduced on the pristine main tree.
• O-spell context binding: post '<title>' carries NO authority — it posts wherever the pager context sits at click time, not the row's worktree; needs a ruling.
• get ///<path>'s // used to name the LAUNCH tree (a cell) — fixed in the main tree by BE-045 (// = the project/meta root everywhere).
• review nits (2026-07-10): key column now FIXED 16 chars (test-pinned); update's err: no such path be in source was the pre-BE-045 binding — verified working on current main, view spell unchanged; diff missing new files is a diff-verb gap (diff.js:279 skips no-base-side paths), NOT the view.
• proposed tickets awaiting gritzko's go: GET-xxx (a //-authority arg that anchors no worktree falls into get's D4 path-restore slot → misleading no such path X in source; must refuse loudly) and DIFF-xxx (render wholly-new files as base-vs-empty additions so diff shows them).
