πŸ’‘ What: Added an accessible clear button (X icon) to the search inputs in Launcher, Projects, and Blog apps.
🎯 Why: Improves UX and accessibility for keyboard and screen reader users by providing an explicit action to reset a search query, rather than forcing tedious backspacing. Crucially, the implementation re-focuses the input element immediately upon clearing, preserving the user's navigational flow.
β™Ώ Accessibility: The button uses aria-label="Clear filter" (or similar), explicit type="button", and explicit focus-visible tailwind styling matching the repository's dark mode conventions. Focus is restored to the input via a React useRef.

Adds a semantic `X` clear button (imported from `lucide-react`) to the search and filter inputs in `Launcher.tsx`, `ProjectsApp.tsx`, and `BlogApp.tsx`. The button includes an `aria-label` for screen readers, `focus-visible` classes for keyboard navigation in dark mode, and correctly manages focus by returning it to the input field after clearing the query.

Superseded by #127 (merged to main), which consolidated the best of the duplicate Bolt/Sentinel/Palette scheduled-agent PRs into one reviewed change. Closing as duplicate.
