Prometheus gains a "Widget templates" tab beside Targets. It lists the
built-in templates and an admin's own, any that no longer pass the checker
first. A template opens as its YAML beside a live preview drawn over a
chosen target exactly as the dashboard widget draws it (routes.draw, now
shared by both). An admin writes or pastes a new one, reads a .yaml upload
into the editor to look over, duplicates any template under a free name,
edits and deletes their own; anyone can export the YAML. Built-in
templates are read-only.

Custom templates are rows in prometheus_widget_templates (migration
prometheus_002_templates), kept in backups, keyed "custom:<id>" so a
rename keeps its widgets. Saving needs a template that passes the checker
and a name no other template has. Create, update and delete are audited
and link to the template.

Steward ships with one template, **Fabled Archives**. A target whose series don't match its template says so in the widget rather than showing blanks.
## Widget templates
**Prometheus → Widget templates** lists every template the widget can draw with: the ones built in, and your own. A template of yours that no longer passes the checker (a newer Steward may read the format differently) is listed first with what to change, and the widgets drawn with it say so too.
Open one to see its YAML beside a **preview**: the template drawn over a target you choose, exactly as the widget draws it, from the values Steward has stored. Nothing is fetched from the target to draw it.
- **New template**: write one, or paste in one someone shared. The preview redraws as you type, and lists each problem with its line until there are none.
- **Upload a file**: on the same page, read a `.yaml` file into the editor to look over before saving.
- **Duplicate**: copy any template, built-in ones included, under a new name, and change the copy. Built-in templates are read-only: they ship with Steward and change with it.
- **Export**: download a template's YAML, to keep or to share.
Saving needs a template that passes the checker and a name no other template has. A widget remembers which template it draws with, so renaming a template keeps its widgets; deleting one leaves its widgets saying the template is gone. Templates are kept in Steward's backups, and adding, changing or deleting one is in the audit log.
## Alerting on a target
In **Alerts → New rule**, choose **Prometheus targets**, then the series (the resource) and the metric. Two rules worth having for any target:
