**Stack trace**:
```
Microsoft.Assumes+InternalErrorException : Did not find new element in the hierarchy for item "REDACTED.cs". The item would have been added with type "Compile". The project item schema service knows about this item type. The item does not exist in the project file.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the MoveTypeCodeRefactoringProvider failure in the reported Visual Studio 17.12 P2.1 .NET 8 setup, then trace the AddDocumentToProjectItems and AddDocumentToFolder entry points in VisualStudioWorkspaceImpl. Compare the behavior with the referenced Create and Copy File issues; done means moving a type to a file completes without the reported project-item hierarchy exception.
