The client half of denpatou#59. Decisions: ADR-0014/0016, denpatou#44 (the grip does double duty, judged on the prototype) and denpatou#45 (PENDING is the dot).

What to build

The pal grows the sitting gesture and the waiting mark, and nothing else.

The grip does double duty. One target on the pal bar, meaning by state: click with no sitting open opens one (default name — naming is not part of the gesture); click inside a sitting declares a seam (継ぎ目); double-click closes. A real single/double-click guard — the prototype's click counter is the decision, not the implementation — and the single-click seam must feel instant; if the standard dblclick window reads as lag on the real pal, shrink it.
Affordance at 0.7×: the target's three states must be tellable at pal scale without becoming a thing to read. The prototype's dashed-border treatment was enough to react to, not necessarily the shipping look.
PENDING is the dot: a static 4px mark beside the carrier meter, drawn only while the go-between says something is held, gone when the hold empties. No animation, no colour escalation, no count (ADR-0016 — the count belongs to the break-in at delivery).
Frames come from the go-between half; nothing here invents a frame name.

Acceptance criteria

Click opens a sitting; click again declares a seam; double-click closes — verified against a running go-between, a held turn audibly releasing on the seam.
A single click never fires open-then-seam by accident, and a double-click never emits a stray seam first.
The dot appears only on the go-between's held signal and carries no number; the invocation line's pending count no longer renders while holding (ADR-0016's contradiction with the current line resolved in the dot's favour).
Parked at 0.7× in a corner, the three grip states are distinguishable without focus.
Reviews run the code; test tail pasted, not paraphrased.

denpatou#59 — the frames and the held signal must exist and be named first.
