contents For a finite-type surface $\mathfrak{S}$, we study a preferred basis for the commutative algebra $\mathbb{C}[\mathscr{R}_{\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{C})}(\mathfrak{S})]$ of regular functions on the $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{C})$-character variety, introduced by Sikora-Westbury. These basis elements come from the trace functions associated to certain tri-valent graphs embedded in the surface $\mathfrak{S}$. We show that this basis can be naturally indexed by non-negative integer coordinates, defined by Knutson-Tao rhombus inequalities and modulo 3 congruence conditions. These coordinates are related, by the geometric theory of Fock and Goncharov, to the tropical points at infinity of the dual version of the character variety.
