feat(ui): support custom workspace names

[shantur]

Summary

• Adds editable workspace display names for recent folders.
• Shows the saved workspace name in the recent folder list and instance tab, including the launching workspace state.
• Preserves workspace names when recent folders are relaunched and keeps basename fallback for unnamed folders.

Fixes #510

Validation

• npm run typecheck --workspace @codenomad/ui
• npm run typecheck --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad

Gatekeeper review for latest PR state.

Understood request: review PR #522 ruthlessly for regressions, implementation quality, and whether the approach should be improved. Assumption: this is a review-only request, so I did not modify code.

Findings:

1. Request changes: renaming an already-open workspace leaves the instance tab stale.
   packages/ui/src/stores/preferences.tsx:599 updates only persisted recentFolders; packages/ui/src/components/instance-tab.tsx:58 renders from props.instance.projectName; and the only place the instance receives a project name is workspace creation/upsert (packages/ui/src/App.tsx:274-298, packages/ui/src/stores/instances.ts:111-147). If a recent folder is already open, the user can click the rename button in the recent-folder row (packages/ui/src/components/folder-selection-view.tsx:969-976), persist the new name, and still see the old tab label until relaunch/refresh/recreation. That violates the PR promise that the saved workspace name is shown in the instance tab. Fix by either deriving the tab label from current recent-folder state by folder path, or by exposing a narrow instance-store update that synchronizes all open instances for that folder when renameRecentFolderProject succeeds.

Quality notes:

• The current implementation stores the display name in two independent places: recent-folder UI state and Instance.projectName. That split is the source of the stale-state bug. If the name is user preference/UI state, the tab should probably derive from that source of truth; if it is workspace runtime metadata, the rename operation should update the workspace/instance metadata too.
• The rename button only has title text. This is not the main blocker, but adding an aria-label with the same i18n string would improve keyboard/screen-reader quality.
• Touched files already exceed the repo’s size warning thresholds and should be watched for future refactors: packages/ui/src/components/folder-selection-view.tsx (~1324 lines), packages/ui/src/stores/instances.ts (~1229 lines), packages/ui/src/stores/preferences.tsx (~974 lines), packages/ui/src/App.tsx (~712 lines). I am not asking for a refactor in this PR.

Validation:

• git diff --check origin/dev...HEAD: passed.
• npm run typecheck --workspace @codenomad/ui: failed in this workspace before a PR-specific result due unresolved dependencies/types such as solid-js, @opencode-ai/sdk/v2, and JSX runtime types.
• npm run typecheck --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad: failed in this workspace before a PR-specific result with TS2688: Cannot find type definition file for 'node'.

Verdict: not gatekeeper-approved yet. The stale open-instance rename behavior should be fixed before merge; after dependencies are available, rerun the advertised typechecks.

Now?

[codenomadbot]

Re-review after latest push.

Understood request: “Now?” means re-check the latest PR state and confirm whether the prior gatekeeper blocker is resolved. Assumption: review-only, no code changes from me.

Findings:

• No blocking code findings in the latest PR state. The previous blocker is addressed by 3913c4ae fix(ui): update open workspace tabs after rename.
• Specifically, packages/ui/src/components/folder-selection-view.tsx:542-543 now persists the renamed recent folder and then calls updateProjectNameForFolder(...), while packages/ui/src/stores/instances.ts:594-604 updates all non-stopped instances whose normalized folder path matches. That closes the stale already-open instance tab behavior I flagged earlier.

Remaining non-blocking notes:

• The rename button still only has title text. Consider adding aria-label={t("folderSelection.recent.rename")} for accessibility, but I would not block this PR on it.
• Large touched files remain a future refactor concern, not a merge blocker: packages/ui/src/components/folder-selection-view.tsx (~1325 lines), packages/ui/src/stores/instances.ts (~1242 lines), packages/ui/src/stores/preferences.tsx (~974 lines), packages/ui/src/App.tsx (~712 lines).

Validation:

• git diff --check origin/dev...HEAD: passed.
• npm run typecheck --workspace @codenomad/ui: still blocked in this workspace by unresolved installed dependencies/types (solid-js, @opencode-ai/sdk/v2, JSX runtime types, etc.). I do not see evidence this is caused by the PR diff.
• npm run typecheck --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad: still blocked in this workspace by TS2688: Cannot find type definition file for 'node'. I do not see evidence this is caused by the PR diff.

Verdict: gatekeeper-approved from code review, with the caveat that CI or a dependency-complete local environment still needs to pass the advertised typechecks before merge.
