Research direction

Reproduce the CLI flow by accepting the displayed default name after choosing a template, then trace the prompt handling around that step. Done means the script no longer exits and continues to the package-manager selection; no source files or tests are named in the issue.

Description

perhaps default name isn't intended to be an option, but

very much looks like I can just press enter and use that as a default

if i do that, the script just stops after picking the template (for all)
image
and doesn't even continue to choosing package manager
