Describe high-level steps to onboard a microservice via self-service CI/CD

Tests platform thinking and developer experience design. A strong answer outlines a golden path: templated repo setup, standardized build/test stages, environment promotion, and observability hooks, plus guardrails not blockers.
Tests whether you can design a platform interface that balances autonomy with governance. A strong answer covers four layers in order: a service catalog template scaffolding repo structure, pipeline files, and default policies; reusable modules for build, test, security scan, and deploy; environment config via variables or GitOps overlays; and built-in observability, secrets, and guardrails that fail builds automatically.
