P1 Generated catalog omits nable

When this component is merged, the dashboard continues reading committed generated catalogs that contain no nable entry, causing the new MCP to remain absent from browsing and search; regenerate and commit the dashboard component artifacts with this source file.

P2: On machines whose default Python is <3.11 (Ubuntu 22.04 system Python, older pyenv setups), uvx nable does not start an MCP server: the nable shim detects the old interpreter and exits 1 after printing a stderr message. The package's own guidance and the repo's existing android-mcp.json pattern pin the interpreter, e.g. uvx --python 3.12 nable. Pin the interpreter in the args to make the server start reliably regardless of the machine's default Python.
