SPEC: Reconcile Dashboard Spec with Web Implementation

Goal

Eliminate the mismatch between tasks/dashboard-spec.md (which describes a terminal TUI) and the actual web-based dashboard implementation.

Requirements

  1. Rewrite tasks/dashboard-spec.md acceptance criteria to describe the implemented web dashboard.
  2. Update automaton/dashboard/README.md help table so shortcuts match the web UI:
    • t cycles themes, not waves.
    • q is documented as browser-only (or removed).
  3. Update automaton/dashboard/html/index.html help modal to match the README.
  4. Delete automaton/dashboard/themes.py (vestigial ANSI theme stub).

Acceptance Criteria

  • tasks/dashboard-spec.md contains no TUI-only requirements (ANSI, arrow keys, terminal width, resizable panels).
  • README.md and help modal agree on keyboard shortcuts.
  • themes.py is removed.
  • python -m automaton.dashboard still starts and serves / and /api/tasks.

Non-Goals

  • Converting the web dashboard to a TUI.
  • Adding new dashboard features.

Stop Condition

When all acceptance criteria are met, output "CONTRACT_MET".
