Problem

Typing the name of a repo you want to create (for example invoices) hides the "New project…" row, because that row only shows when the query is a substring of the phrase "new project". The user lands on "No matching projects." with no way forward.

Where

• components/control/project-combobox.tsx:35: const showNewProject = "new project".includes(query).
• :189-193 renders the dead end.

Fix

1. Always show the "New project…" row when there is no exact match, and when the query is non-empty label it "Create project """.
2. Selecting it should open the existing creation form with the name field prefilled from the query.

Exit criteria

• Playwright case in tests/e2e/control-new-project.spec.ts: type invoices with no matching repo, assert a "Create project" row, select it, assert the creation form opens with the name prefilled. Must fail on main.
• pnpm lint, pnpm typecheck, pnpm test pass.
