+### #PostBreakMenuFix
+Fixed a timer completion bug where a finished break could still produce the same action menu as a finished focus session:
+- the post-session overlay had to know which session type actually just ended
+- the previous flow could fall back to local screen state instead of the persisted active session
+- this caused a break completion to sometimes be treated like a focus completion
+- changed the completion flow so it reads the stored active session before building the post-session prompt
+- reused that same session snapshot when finalizing the session in Supabase
+
+This means the overlay now behaves correctly after a break finishes:
+- it does not offer `Start short break` again
+- it instead keeps the narrower break-finished path:
+  - continue with the same task
+  - go back to the dashboard

 The fix was to keep picker selection local to `app/task/timer.tsx` while the picker is open, and only use route params to decide whether the picker mode should be shown in the first place.
 
+### #PostSessionTypeMismatch
+Another issue appeared after the post-session focus actions were introduced.
+
+The completion overlay already had separate UI for `focus` and `break` sessions, but the value used to choose between them was not robust enough. In practice, that made it possible for a finished break to reopen the focus-style menu and incorrectly offer another break.
+
+The fix was to derive the completed session type from the persisted active session that had actually been running, rather than relying only on the screen's local state at the moment the animation finished.
