| contents | We produce the first examples relating non-orientable exact Lagrangian fillings of Legendrian links to cluster theory, showing that the ungraded augmentation variety of certain max-tb representatives of Legendrian $2$-bridge links is isomorphic to a product of $A_n$-type cluster varieties. As part of this construction, we describe a surjective map from the set of (possibly non-orientable) exact Lagrangian fillings to cluster seeds, producing a product of Catalan numbers of distinct fillings. We also relate the ruling stratification of the ungraded augmentation variety to Lam and Speyer's anticlique stratification of acyclic cluster varieties, showing that the two coincide in this context. As a corollary, we apply a result of Rutherford to show that the cluster-theoretic stratification encodes the information of the lowest $a$-degree term of the Kauffman polynomial of the smooth isotopy class of the $2$-bridge links we study. |
