Templates - Naïve

Starter templates live in the public GitHub repo usenaive/app-dev-templates, organized as {type}/{variant}. Direct-mode users clone a template, build locally, and deploy with POST /v1/apps/:id/deploy. In orchestrated mode, the same templates are scaffolded into engineer agent workspaces automatically.
