Description

This could be helpful for users debugging or modifying their own catalog files, and also as a CI test to make sure taps are generating catalog files compliant with the spec.

Schema Store schemas may be automatically identified and applied in some IDEs (VS Code is one) for linting and auto-complete.

Start by reviewing the catalog.json format and the Schema Store proposal linked in the issue. Define what the published schema must cover and how a CI check would verify that taps generate compliant catalogs; done means both the schema publication and compliance check have an agreed implementation.
