 - **commit**: <hash 或 N/A>
 ======================================================= -->
 
+### 2026-06-30 · v0.6 UX 修复 — 会话内无法返回 Projects 首页
+
+- **状态**: `[x]` DONE。**415 测试全绿**(+3)· 双 typecheck 干净 · `build:web` OK · 真浏览器验证通过。
+- **问题**(用户反馈): 打开某个项目进入终端 tab 后,首页的 Sessions/Projects 段控被隐藏,只能**关掉所有 tab** 才能回到选择器再开下一个项目——没有"返回 Projects"的入口。
+- **修复**(`public/tabs.ts` + `public/style.css`): 标签栏新增 **⌂ Home 按钮**;点击把首页选择器(Sessions/Projects 段控 + 对应面板)**叠加显示在当前 tab 之上**(`homeForced` 标志:`updateHomeView` 改为 `tabs.length===0 || homeForced` 时显示并隐藏所有终端 pane)。再点 ⌂ 或点任一 tab(`activate` 重置 `homeForced`)即回到终端;从叠加层开新会话/项目也会自动收起。关最后一个 tab 时复位 `homeForced`。⌂ 叠加时高亮(`.tab-home.active`,Amber)。
+- **测试**(`test/tabs.test.ts` +3): ⌂ 叠加首页再切回;叠加层切到 Projects 并开第二个项目后自动收起;0 tab 时 ⌂ 为 no-op。
+- **验证**: `npx tsc -p tsconfig.json/.web.json` 干净;`npx vitest run` 415/415;真浏览器:开 shell tab→段控隐藏→点 ⌂→段控+面板叠加显示、⌂ 高亮→切 Projects 面板可见→再点 ⌂→回到终端。
