Three rules, applied to every row-like surface (Activity, Connectors and Tools, Your Team, Artifacts, the inspector) and nothing else changes: 1. *Categories are glyphs.* Anything with a fixed set of values — ask kind, write mode, status, platform, outcome — renders as a 16px 2px-stroke mark with its word in `title` and the accessible name, never as a word in the row and never as a unicode character. The mark's colour keeps saying who is asking (an agent is cobalt). 2. *Only the deciding act is a word.* Approve, Reply, the cobalt option, a row's single act keep their label. Mark handled, Deny, Open pod, Manage-beside-a-primary become 32px square icon buttons (44 under 760) with the word in `title` and the accessible name.
