## Problem

The issues table has excess horizontal space used by status/priority/agent status columns. The current design includes both sorting controls and filter dropdowns separately, taking up more space than needed.

## Proposed Changes

### 1. Move Sort into Filter Dropdown
- Combine the sort action with the filter dropdown for status/priority/agent status columns
- The dropdown should include both filter options AND sort options (e.g., 'Sort A-Z', 'Sort Z-A')
- This consolidates two controls into one

### 2. Icon-Only Column Headers
- The column header click action should only apply to the icon itself
- Remove any extra padding/text from these column headers
- Headers should be just the icon (status emoji, priority indicator, agent status icon)

### 3. Minimize Column Widths
After the above changes:
- Reduce column width for status to fit just the status emoji/icon
- Reduce column width for priority to fit just the priority indicator
- Reduce column width for agent status to fit just the agent icon
- Use CSS `width: min-content` or fixed pixel widths

## Benefits

- More horizontal space for title and other content
- Cleaner, more compact table layout
- Consolidated UX (filter + sort in one place)
- Better information density

## Acceptance Criteria

- Sort options moved into filter dropdowns for status/priority/agent status
- Column headers are icon-only with minimal width
- Table displays more compactly without losing functionality
- Clicking icon opens the combined filter/sort dropdown

## Feature Triage Complete **Status:** NOT IMPLEMENTED **Summary:** The requested feature to combine sort/filter controls and minimize icon column widths does not currently exist. The issues table uses separate sort (header click) and filter (funnel icon) controls for status/priority columns, with 50px fixed widths. **Implementation Location:** - `server/templates/partials/issues_table.html` - column header restructuring - `server/templates/base.html` - CSS for icon-only columns and combined dropdown **Complexity:** Medium - requires template restructuring, CSS changes, and minor JS updates across 2-3 files. **Key Changes Needed:** 1. Add sort options (A-Z, Z-A) to existing filter dropdowns 2. Remove separate sort click handler from header icons 3. Add `.icon-col` CSS class with `width: min-content` See attached triage report for full implementation details.
