Problem

Settings lets you rename the "No project" home, and it has a reset button for that name. But the sidebar group label, the chat header breadcrumb, and the new-thread project picker always show "No project". They ignore the saved title.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Settings for the "No project" home.
2. Rename it, for example to "EOY reviews".
3. The sidebar and the chat header still show "No project". The custom icon does show.

Expected: these places show the saved title.

Change

These three places now read the project title instead of a hardcoded "No project":

• packages/client-runtime/src/state/projectGrouping.ts (sidebar group label)
• apps/web/src/components/chat/ChatHeader.tsx (header breadcrumb)
• apps/web/src/components/chat/DraftHeroHeadline.tsx (draft project picker)

The server creates the scratch project with the title "No project" (ManagedProjectFolders.ts). So a home that has not been renamed looks the same as before. The command palette action "No project" is unchanged, because it names the action of starting a thread without a project.

Scope and approval

This is a small, focused fix for an obvious bug. Renaming the scratch home is supported (#26798 added the reset to "No project"), but three display paths ignore the saved name. No product behavior changes for users who have not renamed it.

Verification

• Added labels a renamed scratch home with its title to projectGrouping.test.ts. Without the fix it fails with expected 'No project' to be 'EOY reviews'. With the fix it passes.
• vp test run packages/client-runtime/src/state/projectGrouping.test.ts: 23 tests pass.
• vp test run apps/web/src/components/chat apps/web/src/sidebarProjectGrouping: 436 tests pass in 51 files. Browser test files did not run locally.
• typecheck passes for @t3tools/client-runtime and @t3tools/web.

Manual check with vp run dev and an empty home dir. I started a thread without a project, then renamed the "No project" home to "EOY reviews" in Settings > Projects. The Codex errors in the thread are there because Codex is not installed on this machine, and they are not related to this change.

Before (main): the sidebar and the header still show "No project".

After (this branch): both show "EOY reviews".

Walkthrough

Scratch project titles now appear in the chat header, draft project picker, and project group label instead of the fixed “No project” label.

Changes: Scratch project title display

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Chat header and picker labels apps/web/src/components/chat/ChatHeader.tsx, apps/web/src/components/chat/DraftHeroHeadline.tsx	The chat header uses the active project title when available. The draft picker displays the title or “Choose a project.”
Scratch project group label packages/client-runtime/src/state/projectGrouping.ts, packages/client-runtime/src/state/projectGrouping.test.ts	Scratch project groups use the representative project title. A test checks that a custom title becomes the group label.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "fix(web): show renamed No project title in sidebar and header" matches the main change. The PR makes the sidebar group label, chat header breadcrumb, and draft project picker show the saved title of a renamed scratch project instead of the hardcoded "No project". The title follows conventional commit style and names the affected surfaces. It omits the draft project picker and the shared client-runtime grouping change, but those are secondary aspects of the same fix.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description covers the problem, the change, scope justification, and verification. It has a clear reproduction path, names the three changed files, and explains why the default label stays unchanged for unrenamed homes. It also includes unit test results, typecheck results, and a manual check with before/after screenshots. Browser test files did not run locally, and the author discloses this. The template asks for a conventional commit title, and the PR title is not part of the description, so it is not evaluated here. The description meets the template's requirements.

Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Handle distinct scratch-home titles.

When scratch homes in two environments have different titles, this uses only the preferred environment’s title. The sidebar then assigns that label to both homes’ threads. A renamed remote home can still appear as “No project,” or its threads can appear under another home’s name. Use a non-misleading group label when titles differ and retain each home’s title in member-specific UI. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Closing this. It undoes #19721, which made scratch threads show "No project" on purpose (#19720), and it does not cover the command palette or mobile. This needs a maintainer decision first, so I added the details to #23757.
