Sublime Text (and Merge) have zero macOS accessibility support aside from menus/windows — everything inside uses their custom UI framework. This is nothing Homerow can fix; you should report it as an issue in Sublime Text.

This is nothing Homerow can fix;

Well, not nothing, since title bar is a known element you could add a customizable vertical offset to get to the tab row and then just slap some labels at a customizable horizontal offset that would cover all the tabs (some wide tabs would be covered twice, empty tab bar would also have labels, but that's a lesser evil than having none)

you should report it as an issue in Sublime Text.

it's already been reported a few times since 2016 :) https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_text/issues/1420
