Subject: [PATCH] polish(v0.6): make "New session" a grid tile instead of a
 heavy header button

The big solid-amber "+ New session" button clashed with the refined segmented
control. Replace it with a dashed "+" tile that leads the session grid (same
size as the session cards, re-prepended each refresh), so it reads as a natural
"create" cell. Header is now just the title + Sessions/Projects toggle; the
redundant empty-state message is gone (the tile is the CTA).

Frontend-only (launcher.ts + style.css). Verified: web typecheck + build clean,
preview-grid tests green, in-browser the grid leads with the New-session tile
followed by the session cards (Open/Kill).

+### 2026-06-30 · v0.6 "New session" 改为网格卡片(去掉别扭的大按钮)
+
+- **状态**: `[x]` DONE。web typecheck 干净 · `build:web` OK · 真浏览器验证通过。
+- **需求**(用户): 头部那个大的实心琥珀 "＋ New session" 按钮很别扭(与精致的分段 pill 不协调)。
+- **改动**(纯前端 `public/launcher.ts` + style): 删头部 `.launcher-new` 按钮 + `.launcher-actions`;改为 grid 内的 **`.mg-new-card` 虚线"＋ New session"瓦片**(与 session 卡同尺寸,始终排在网格第一格,每次 refresh 重新 prepend),hover 变琥珀。删冗余 `.mg-empty` 空态(瓦片即 CTA)。头部只剩标题 + 段控,更干净。
+- **验证**: `npx tsc -p tsconfig.web.json` 干净;`build:web` OK;`preview-grid` 测试 14 全绿;真浏览器:Sessions 网格首格为虚线 New 瓦片 + 其后 session 卡(Open/Kill),无旧大按钮。
