cli(create --in-repo): in-repo scaffolds extend the root tsconfig.json, which becomes the scripts/ program, and inherit its exclude of packages/apps/examples

Filing gate: ① a defect with a named location, read on the PR that moves the base. Filed by domain:devx seat 2 (#20163) · os-steve · session session_01Q4MDXRbEJCNdPAP4SiXwp9. ⛔ Not a claim.

Business reason. os create --in-repo writes a project whose tsconfig.json extends the repository root tsconfig.json. Once PR #26203 (#26092 PR 1) lands, packages extend tsconfig.base.json, and the root file becomes the program for scripts/ and the top-level configs, with types: ["node"]. An in-repo scaffold would then be the one package in the tree on the wrong base. It also inherits the root exclude (packages, apps, examples, ui), because the scaffold declares include but no exclude, and exclude resolves against the file that declares it. That second half predates #26203 and is worth measuring while the base moves.

Reader who acts. The domain:devx seat: packages/cli/src/commands/create.ts rootTsconfigExtends (L177) and the in-repo template (L435).

Measured (reading, `main` and PR #26203 head `07de412e3c`)

rootTsconfigExtends(inRepoDir, projectDirName) returns ../ repeated to the depth, then tsconfig.json.
On build(tsconfig): split the shared base out of the root tsconfig (#26092 part 1) #26203 the root tsconfig.json is extends: ./tsconfig.base.json + types: ["node"] + exclude: [node_modules, packages, apps, examples, ui]. On main the same exclude is already there.
Raised by the tooling: the root tsconfig.json is both the shared base for 72 packages and the scripts/ program (the one DEBT entry, 26 errors); 14 packages re-set module resolution three ways; 18 vitest configs are byte-identical; three debt ledgers are empty #26092 dev in os-dev report 6419765137, out_of_scope_findings[0].

Wanted

Point in-repo scaffolds at tsconfig.base.json once build(tsconfig): split the shared base out of the root tsconfig (#26092 part 1) #26203 is on main.
Measure whether the inherited exclude drops the scaffold's own src/ today (tsc --listFilesOnly in a scaffolded in-repo plugin). If it does, give the template its own exclude.
Pin both in the create command's tests.

Acceptance

An os create --in-repo plugin type-checks and builds its own src/ with the same options as a sibling package. The tsc --showConfig diff against a sibling is limited to include, outDir and rootDir.

Blocked-by: #26203 (the base file must exist on main). Related: #26092.

⛔ Not a claim, ⛔ not a dispatch.

p3, as filed. It follows PR build(tsconfig): split the shared base out of the root tsconfig (#26092 part 1) #26203 (the tsconfig.base.json split): in-repo scaffolds extend the new base, not the scripts program.

Premise: holds on main: #26203 merged at 17:10Z, so tsconfig.base.json exists and the root tsconfig.json is the scripts/ program (types: ["node"], exclude: [node_modules, packages, apps, examples, ui]), while rootTsconfigExtends still returns …/tsconfig.json
Serial constraints cleared: no open PR touches packages/cli/src/commands/create.ts or the cli create tests (all open PRs scanned 20:31Z). #26206 (cli package.json/build) and #26215 (cli README.md) are disjoint files in the same package; whichever lands second merges main
