I think we should narrow this to numeric namespace IDs unless we also add a lookup step. GitLab's POST /projects API documents namespace_id as an integer group/subgroup ID, but this schema and the tool description accept a full path string and pass it straight through to the create-project request. That means inputs like "my-group/sub-group" are advertised as valid by the MCP schema, but they are not actually supported by this endpoint contract.

Could we either make this z.coerce.number().optional() and update the descriptions/test plan to say numeric namespace ID only, or resolve a full namespace path to its numeric ID before calling POST /projects?
