Alan Wizemann 19750597cd feat(site-status-checker): add Live Site Preview webview for Site tab
A Scarf project dashboard that includes at least one webview widget
automatically exposes a Site tab next to the Dashboard tab. Adding a
"Live Site Preview" section with a webview widget gives this template
that tab out of the box.

The cron job + AGENTS.md now tell the agent to rewrite the webview's
`url` field to the first entry in `values.sites` on each run, so the
Site tab renders whatever the user actually configured instead of the
GitHub placeholder. If `values.sites` is empty, the webview URL is
left untouched.

Swift example test updated to assert 4 sections (was 3) plus the new
webview widget's presence + title; bundle + catalog rebuilt.

Scarf Templates

The community template catalog for Scarf — a macOS GUI for the Hermes AI agent. Each subdirectory here is one installable project template. Browse the live catalog with live dashboard previews at https://awizemann.github.io/scarf/templates/.

What's a template?

A .scarftemplate bundle ships:

  • A pre-configured project dashboard (widgets for stats, lists, text, charts).
  • A cross-agent AGENTS.md (agents.md standard) that tells Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Aider, Jules, Copilot, Zed, etc. how to work with the project.
  • Optional skills, cron jobs, optional per-agent instruction shims (CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, .cursorrules, .github/copilot-instructions.md), and an optional memory appendix.

Users install with one click from the catalog site or by opening a .scarftemplate file in Scarf.

Layout

Each template lives at templates/<github-handle>/<template-name>/ with:

templates/<github-handle>/<template-name>/
├── staging/                               source tree
│   ├── template.json                      manifest (id, name, version, contents claim)
│   ├── README.md                          shown on catalog detail page
│   ├── AGENTS.md                          required cross-agent instructions

└── screenshots/                           optional PNGs for the detail page

The built .scarftemplate is served directly from raw.githubusercontent.com — the catalog's Install button links at:

Contributing a template

See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full submission walkthrough. tl;dr: fork, drop a template under templates/<your-handle>/<your-name>/, open a PR. A CI check validates the bundle; a maintainer reviews the content.

Catalog metadata

catalog.json at this directory is the aggregate index that the website reads. It's regenerated by the maintainer on merge — do not modify it in your PR, the build script will take care of it.
