Four small fixes surfaced by a side-by-side plan-vs-shipped pass:
- README.md: adds the Template Catalog section the plan called out —
links to the live site URL, the install flows (web / file / Finder),
and templates/CONTRIBUTING.md for authors. Placed right before the
existing Contributing section, with a catalog-specific cross-link at
the end of that section too.
- CLAUDE.md: adds the Template Catalog section so future agent sessions
know the regenerator pipeline exists, how it relates to release.sh +
wiki.sh, and what the schema-sync rule is when DashboardWidget or
ProjectTemplateManifest change.
- scarf/scarfTests/ProjectTemplateTests.swift: fixes the stale
ProjectTemplateExampleTemplateTests docstring still referencing
`examples/templates/` (the example moved to `templates/awizemann/`
in 70f7cea).
- .github/workflows/validate-template-pr.yml: untangles the self-
contradictory Python-version comment. The validator is 3.9+
compatible; CI uses 3.11 for faster runner caching. Same stdlib
surface, same code paths — just clearer about why.
All tests still green: 22 Swift tests in 7 suites, 16 Python tests,
catalog check passes on the site-status-checker example.

Adds the CI gate that runs on every PR touching templates/, the catalog
validator, or its tests. The Action:
- runs tools/test_build_catalog.py (catches drift between validator +
its own test suite on the same PR that introduces the drift)
- runs tools/build-catalog.py --check (validates every shipped .scarftemplate
against the same invariants ProjectTemplateService.verifyClaims enforces
at install time)
- posts a PR comment with the last 3 KB of the validator log on failure,
so contributors see the specific mismatch without hunting through the
Actions UI
.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE/template-submission.md is the author-facing
checklist that mirrors templates/CONTRIBUTING.md. Opt-in via the
?template=template-submission.md compare URL (documented in the
contribution guide). CONTRIBUTING.md now links both the PR template and
the workflow file so authors know what to expect.
Phase 4 closes the community loop — from this commit on, a stranger can
fork the repo, follow templates/CONTRIBUTING.md, push a PR, and get
deterministic green/red feedback before a maintainer ever looks at it.
