`POST /companies/{company_id}/templates`

- Auth: none declared

A new template, from a starter or a document; published as its first version, or
with ``publish`` false kept as its draft until a person publishes it (decision 242).

- `company_id` string, uuid, required: Company id

## Request body

- TemplateCreate
  - `name` string, required
  - `starter` string
  - `document` object, nullable
  - `source_ids` string[], nullable
  - `publish` boolean

## Response `201`

Successful Response

- TemplateOut
  - `id` string, uuid, required
  - `name` string, required
  - `status` string, required
  - `active_version_id` string, uuid, nullable, required
  - `archived_at` string, date-time, nullable
  - `auto_render` boolean
  - `needs_render_since` string, date-time, nullable
  - `all_sources` boolean
  - `source_ids` string[]
  - `draft_saved_at` string, date-time, nullable
  - `editor_url` string, nullable

  - `updated_at` string, date-time, required
  - `renders_purge_at` string, date-time, nullable, required: When this archived template's renders are deleted; null if active. Derived rather than stored, and derived *here* rather than in the portal, so the countdown the operator reads comes from the same retention setting the sweep obeys. A client that computed it from its own idea of "30 days" would go quietly wrong the day that setting changed.
