Create a new note from a template in the inbox.

## Arguments

- `type` (optional): Template type (project, meeting, learning, idea, research, daily, resource, snippet, area)
- `title` (optional): Title for the new note

## Instructions

1. **If no type provided**, show available templates:

   ```
   Available templates:
   1. project   - Active work with goals
   2. meeting   - Agendas and meeting notes
   3. learning  - Courses, books, study
   4. idea      - Brainstorms and concepts
   5. research  - Research on a topic
   6. daily     - Daily note
   7. resource  - Reference material
   8. snippet   - Code and commands
   9. area      - Life/work areas

   Which template? (number or name)
   ```

2. **If no title provided**, ask for it:
   - "What's the title for this [type] note?"
   - For daily: use today's date automatically

3. **Read the template** from `templates/template-[type].md`

4. **Replace placeholders**:
   - `{{title}}` → user's title
   - `{{date}}` → today's date (YYYY-MM-DD)
   - `{{day}}` → day of week (Monday, Tuesday, etc.)
   - `{{yesterday}}` → yesterday's date
   - `{{slug}}` → lowercase-hyphenated version of title
   - `{{language}}` → ask user if snippet template

5. **Create the note** in `inbox/`:
   - Filename: `[type]-[title-slug].md`
   - For daily: `daily-YYYY-MM-DD.md`

6. **Show the created note** and offer:
   - Open for editing (show content)
   - Fill in specific sections now
   - Remind about `/organize` when done

## Example usage

```
/new                     # Show template list
/new project             # Create project, ask for title
/new project My API      # Create project with title
/new meeting Weekly Sync # Create meeting note
/new daily               # Create today's daily note
/new snippet             # Create snippet, ask for title & language
