Fix virtual workingDir handling in addSessionToProject

- Modified addSessionToProject to correctly extract projectKey from virtual workingDirs
- Virtual workingDir format: /virtual/projects/{projectKey}
- Previously was converting slashes to dashes, causing mismatch
- Added console logging to track session-to-project assignment

 ## Progress
 
-### Iteration 1 - Analysis - COMPLETED ✅
-- Read all relevant files
-- Identified the root cause
-- Created fix plan
+### Iteration 1 - Analysis & Initial Fix - COMPLETED ✅
+
+**Changes Made:**
+
+1. **Modified `loadChatHistory()` in chat-enhanced.js** (lines 71-100):
+   - Added check for `window.projectManager.activeProjectId`
+   - If active project exists, use `activeProject.sessions` instead of fetching from API
+   - This ensures that even when `loadChatHistory()` is called without parameters, it respects the active project
+
+2. **Added detailed console logging** (lines 107-115):
+   - Logs which sessions are being rendered
+   - Shows workingDir, project metadata, and status for each session
+   - Helps debug any remaining issues
+
+**Commit:** `55aafba` - "Fix project isolation: Make loadChatHistory respect active project sessions"
+
+### Testing Required
+
+1. Create a new project (e.g., 'roman')
+2. Add a session to 'roman' project
+3. Check if only 'roman' sessions appear in left sidebar
+4. Switch to another project
+5. Verify only that project's sessions appear
+
+### Potential Issues to Watch
+
+1. **Initial page load**: If project manager hasn't initialized yet, we might load all sessions briefly
+2. **Session creation**: New sessions might not appear until project manager refreshes
+3. **Project switching timing**: Race conditions between loadChatHistory calls
 
 ### Next Steps
-1. Fix `loadChatHistory` to properly filter by project
-2. Ensure sessions are tracked per project correctly
-3. Test the fix
 
-## Detailed Root Cause
-
-Looking at `chat-enhanced.js` lines 64-81:
-```javascript
-if (sessionsToRender) {
-  // Use provided sessions (for project filtering)
-  allSessions = sessionsToRender;
-} else {
-  // Fetch all sessions from API
-  const res = await fetch('/claude/api/claude/sessions');
-  // ... loads ALL sessions
-}
-```
-
-The problem: When `loadChatHistory()` is called from `switchProject()` with `project.sessions`, it correctly uses those sessions. BUT there are other calls to `loadChatHistory()` throughout the code that don't pass the filter parameter, causing all sessions to load.
-
-Also, the session tabs (`window.sessionTabs.setSessions`) are correctly updated but the left sidebar isn't properly isolated.
-
-## Solution
-
-The fix needs to:
-1. Make `loadChatHistory` always respect the current project's sessions
-2. Track which project is active globally
-3. Filter sessions by the active project's workingDir or project ID
+1. Test the current fix in browser
+2. If issues remain, may need to:
+   - Add loading state to prevent showing wrong sessions during initialization
+   - Ensure project manager initializes before loadChatHistory runs
+   - Add event-based updates instead of polling
