Description

Goal: Clear, colored status icons.

Detailed work: Build a (icon,color) lookup:

• Done → ✔, green
• In Progress → ◒, yellow
• Blocked → ●, red
• Replace the current green dot logic with this component.

Acceptance Criteria

• [x] Unit test verifies mapping table.
• [x] Snapshot shows correct icon + color for each mocked state.

Implementation Notes

Created a new status icon component (src/ui/status-icon.ts) that provides:

• getStatusStyle() - Returns both icon and color for a given status
• getStatusColor() - Returns just the color (for backward compatibility)
• getStatusIcon() - Returns just the icon
• formatStatusWithIcon() - Returns formatted string with icon and status text

The component implements the following mappings:

• Done → ✔ (green)
• In Progress → ◒ (yellow)
• Blocked → ● (red)
• To Do → ○ (white) - Added for completeness
• Review → ◆ (blue)
• Testing → ▣ (cyan)
• Unknown statuses → ○ (white) as default

Key changes made:

1. Created src/ui/status-icon.ts with the status icon/color lookup component
2. Updated src/ui/task-viewer.ts to use the new component for status display
3. Updated src/ui/board.ts to show status icons in column headers
4. Removed the old getStatusColor function from task-viewer.ts
5. Created comprehensive unit tests in src/test/status-icon.test.ts

The status icons are now consistently used across all UI components, providing clear visual indicators for task status.
