Research direction
Start with the Angular Material autocomplete and chips components, using the Chips autocomplete example linked in the issue as the expected use case. Review the existing selection and closing behavior and any related tests or API documentation you find. Done means a boolean closeOnSelect option controls whether the list closes after selecting an option, with coverage for both settings.
