[FEATURE] Rename projects in the sidebar

Preflight Checklist

• [x] I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
• [x] This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

When working with multiple checkouts of the same repo (e.g., a Windows copy and a WSL copy of xpcrm), both appear in the Projects sidebar with the same name derived from the directory basename, making them indistinguishable at a glance. Please allow a user-defined display label per project (stored in settings, keyed by absolute path) so they can be told apart without renaming the underlying directories — which breaks scripts, IDE configs, and per-project memory.

Proposed Solution

a right click menu that allows you to rename the project. This could be stored in the global claude.md file for claude code.

Alternative Solutions

_No response_

Priority

Medium - Would be very helpful

Feature Category

Developer tools/SDK

Use Case Example

in the claude code navigation panel on the LHS, under projects. I have a windows version of the codebase and a wsl version of the codebase and they both have the same names. It just causes confusion.
