WORK-004: work view — ahbeh counts become +N/-N buttons, get retired

Input

Context

Split out of WORK-003 (gritzko, chat 2026-07-19): the ahbeh-buttons ruling was filed inside WORK-003's WIP but is a separate UI feature, not part of that ticket's post-dispatch defect. Evidence, be tip (///be):

• views/work/work.js:363-371 ahbehSpans renders +N/-N as TEXT only (tags G/M), right-aligned to 7, render-clamped at 99.
• work.js:379-393: three fixed button slots ("get " 6, "diff " 7, "post " 7, work.js:345-347); [get] mints get ///<relpath>, [diff] mints diff //KEY, [post] mints post '<ticket title>' (title via todo.pageTitle, work.js:333-339).
• Palette: tags at work.js:47-53; THEME in view/bro.js:93-112 — G = green(32), M = bright red(91), W = green, E = yellow, Y = blue.
• The UNLANDED work/WORK-003 wt carries a partial cut (its work.js:366-380: bare-post/bare-get O-invites on the count spans, commit-only post) — counts there are UNbracketed/unpadded and [get] still renders; reference read-only.
• The view test be/test/work/view/ (check.js, run.sh) pins the row layout byte-exactly; test/work/getctx is the pty harness shape.

Goals

RULING (gritzko, chat 2026-07-19): the ahead/behind indicator IS the button row — bare get / bare post correspond 1:1 to the behind/ahead states.

• [+N] mints bare post (advance the track); [-N] mints bare get (pull); each an O-invite in the ROW's ctx (//KEY); a zero side shows no button.
• [post] mints ONLY the commit, post '<ticket title>'; no title — no button.
• [get] button goes away entirely (slot and all); [diff] stays as is.
• Render: counts are bracketed padded buttons [+3]/[-2]; render clamps at two digits, [+99] max (counts themselves stay unclamped).
• Colors: + side salad green, - side salmon (NOT the current green-32/bright-red-91 — pick nearer 256-color shades in the THEME idiom).
• In plain (no-pager) output the counts stay text as today.

Constraints

• Overlaps the UNLANDED work/WORK-003 wt in views/work/work.js and the view test; do NOT copy from it, build on be tip; expect a weave when both land.
• Amending be/test/work/view/check.js to the new row is AUTHORIZED by the ruling; no other test edits.
• Rulings in force: verbs resolve args via resolve(context,base,rel), pager arg-blind; //authority from arg0 only; pty-click verification through the real UI path, not TLV probes.

WIP

Design decisions

• ahbeh cell (work.js ahbehSpans): plain/repo rows keep TEXT +N/-N padded to 7; a pager WT row (btns+ctx) renders [+N]/[-N] buttons padded to 11.
• [+N] mints bare post, [-N] bare get as //KEY/: verb O-invites; the zero side shows nothing, two-digit clamp; [post] stays the titled commit.
• Colours: the tok tag space is FULL (only 'A'/'S' free, 'S' is default). So ahead reuses the green slot 'G' refreshed 32→salad-256(149); behind gets the NEW 'A'=salmon-256(209). 'M' kept at 91 — bro/pager/verbcolor pins it and conflicts stay bright-red. Collateral: pager string-green softens to salad.
• pty-click check lives in test/work/view/clickpty.py (getctx is off-limits).

TODOs

• red: view test pinned the OLD [get]/text-ahbeh row; captured the new row
• retired [get]+SLOT_GET; BTNW=14, ahbeh col aligns (check.js diff/#hash)
• bracketed padded [+N]/[-N] fixed-width button, two-digit clamp
• salad-green + (G→256) / salmon - (new 'A') THEME slots in view/bro.js
• green: view test passes; real-click + pty mint bare post/get, titled post in the row ctx (the LANDING of bare get/post is WORK-003's dispatch, not here)

Blockers and bummers

• test/work/getctx (WORK-002, off-limits) clicks the retired [get] → now RED; rework it to click [-N] when WORK-002/003/004 weave together.
• clone went behind 1 mid-session: DIFF-014 (f168d856, diff.js) landed upstream, unmerged; my commit is ahead 1 — left for the user to weave/merge.

Outcome

• Local commit 896ed3d8 (///be) + 2e5e51ac (//WORK-004/test sub), ahead 1; NOT landed/merged. Files: views/work/work.js, view/bro.js, test/work/view/ {check.js, run.sh, clickpty.py}.
