T02: Make the job table expose the right next action and prove the daily loop

Slice: S04 — Daily control loop surfaces Milestone: M001

Description

Strengthen the job table so the first daily view shows what action is actually due and can jump directly into the right job workspace tab.

Steps

1. Audit the existing job-table row chips and actions against the reminder/readiness data already available.
2. Add clearer action affordances for follow-up and package work that route into the same job workspace state used by dashboard/reminders.
3. Fold the table interactions into the focused daily-loop test.
4. Verify the routed-table behavior and build output.

Must-Haves

• Job-table urgency signals are actionable, not just decorative.
• Table actions route into the same workspace state used by reminders/dashboard.
• The focused UI test proves the table participates in the same daily loop.

Verification

• CI=true npm --prefix job-tracker-ui test -- --watch=false --runTestsByPath src/daily-control-loop.test.tsx
• CI=true npm --prefix job-tracker-ui run build

Inputs

• job-tracker-ui/src/components/JobTable.tsx — current table and row actions.
• job-tracker-ui/src/daily-control-loop.test.tsx — focused loop test from T01.

Expected Output

• job-tracker-ui/src/components/JobTable.tsx — clearer next-action affordances.
• job-tracker-ui/src/daily-control-loop.test.tsx — proof that the table participates in the routed daily loop.
