Sorry I replied to the wrong question with this answer:
tell application "Xcode"
get name of front window
end
tell

tell
application "Xcode"
get name of project 1
end tell

tell
application "Xcode"
get name of every project
end
tell

Thanks, Gouri.  I still don’t understand why “front project” does not give me the project which is the subject of the front window.  “front project” seems to give the same as “project 1”.  But, anyhow, here is the ugly workaround.  It relies on the fact that Xcode names its windows like “aFilename – aProjectName”:

tell application "Xcode"
    set frontWindowName to name of front window
   
    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to " - "
    set phrases to frontWindowName's text items as list
   -- restore delimiters to default value:
   set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {""}
    
    set frontProjectName to item 2 of phrases
   set numberOfProjects to count of items of projects
   repeat with i from 1 to numberOfProjects
       set currentProject to item i of projects
       if name of currentProject is frontProjectName then
           tell currentProject to [do whatever you want]
        end if
   end repeat
end
tell
