Describe the bug
I guess Warp is using your own tab implementation, and not the one provided by macOS. It's better that either having to add Accessibility API information to your tab model, or switching to the standard tabs, so that other App can see your tabs and iteract with it like Chrome or Finder, iTerm2, Terminal tabs are being interacted with.
To reproduce
Any app switcher that supports tabs can't see your tabs instead of the current tab

Does this block you from using Warp daily?
Yes, this issue prevents me from using Warp daily.
Is this a Warp specific issue? (i.e. does it happen in Terminal, iTerm, Kitty, etc.)
Yes, this I confirmed this only happens in Warp, not other terminals.

Research direction
No source file or test is identified in the issue. Start by locating Warp's macOS tab implementation and checking how its tabs are exposed to app switchers; compare the behavior with Terminal, iTerm2, Chrome, or Finder. Done means supported macOS app switchers can recognize and interact with Warp's tabs.
