Two fields and one board column mechanism, committed together because the second
is only there for the first: the board had NO sorting at all, CR-001 asks for a
sortable column, and CR-003 asks for another. Building the mechanism twice, or
building it once and pretending the second task got it free, are both worse than
saying so.
CR-001 - P6 activity ID and description
Every work package traces back to the schedule activity that drives it, so a
date on a package is anchored rather than floating. Placed beside the due
date, which is where the meeting put it and the reason it is there.
Free text. A validated lookup against an imported activity list is deferred
(BL-000a) partly because the Micron schedule is being reworked - importing it
now would import churn.
Both fields live inside General Information, so CR-006's toggle governs them
without any further wiring. The probe checks that by turning the section off
and reading the rendered document, rather than by asserting they are in the
right <div>.
CR-003 - Priority
Three levels, agreed live in the meeting, and no fourth. Normal is the
baseline default, and a package saved before today reads as Normal rather than
blank - blank would sort and filter as an invisible fourth level.
Sorted by ESCALATION, not alphabetically. High/Normal/Urgent would put the
most urgent last, which is the one thing the column exists to prevent. The
probe asserts the order AND that it is not the sorted order.
Colour is never the only signal. The label is always rendered; the three
differ by fill as well as by hue (outline / amber / red). Every value is a
canonical token - X7's warning is that without one source of truth for colour,
Normal/High/Urgent gets four implementations. 0 colour literals in the
creator's stylesheet, asserted rather than assumed.
Independent of status: the probe changes priority and checks the status radio
did not move, then checks collectPackage reports the new priority with the old
status.
Sorting, and what "including with empty values" had to decide
EMPTIES LAST, in both directions. Ascending by P6 activity means "the ones
with an activity, in order, then the ones without", because nobody sorts by a
column in order to look at the rows that have nothing in it. Reversing the
direction reverses the filled rows and leaves the blanks where they are. The
probe checks both directions and that no row is lost either way.
A non-numeric value in a numeric column is neither empty nor a number; it
sorts after the numbers rather than as NaN, which compares false against
everything and leaves the order undefined.
Every sortable header is a real <button> inside its <th>, so it is in the tab
order and Enter/Space work without being wired up. The direction is exposed
through aria-sort on the th as well as drawn as an arrow, and the sorted
column is bold - three channels (C1). Gates and the actions column are not
sortable and therefore are not offered as buttons.

tests/generalinfo_check.py new - 49 checks
Done when — CR-001
[x] both fields exist, persist, and survive a reload (saved, reloaded, reopened)
[x] Activity ID renders next to Due Date on the detail view
[x] the column sorts correctly, including with empty values
[x] both fields appear on the PDF export
[x] the fields respect the CR-006 section toggles
Done when — CR-003
[x] exactly three values; Normal is the default on a new work package
[x] the dashboard filters and sorts by priority
[x] priority colours come from canonical tokens; no raw hex added
[x] colour is not the only signal - the label is always present
[x] priority prints on the PDF export
[x] changing priority does not alter status
No migration. Both fields live in the work package's JSON data blob, which is
where every other per-package field lives; nothing in server/models.py changed.

One note on running these: two of the runs above aborted with "browser would not
start after 3 attempts". That is the documented back-to-back port exhaustion,
not a code fault - both passed after a pause. The brief warns about it and it is
real.
Question for the PR, per CLAUDE.md: priority has no effect on anything yet - it
does not sort the board by default, does not affect release readiness, and does
not appear on the field view. It is a label the planner sets and a filter the
dashboard offers. If Urgent is meant to DO something, that is a separate item.
