The first run walks a four-step wizard (API key / language+theme / model+workspace / shortcuts), re-runnable with `/setup`.

+The session manager focuses the most recently used session in the current workspace; if there is no history, it focuses the new-session card. Moving between the workspace rail and session list preserves the selected session, including when the mouse enters the list.

 With DSH's current JSONL backend, startup and `/new` keep initial permission events in memory until further session activity or an explicit durability flush saves the complete log. Restarting an unstored empty session starts fresh.
 Removing a workspace registration keeps its sessions accessible under a "History only" directory in the rail.
 History-only directories offer edit and new-session actions; rename and remove are available for registered workspaces.
