Description

Add imgUrl thumbnails to the gallery cards across the finalized set of extensions/examples, so cards show a meaningful icon instead of the generic puzzle-piece fallback. Done as one coordinated pass at the end of the Gallery overhaul, once new content is finalized.

We will want to preview all the rendered thumbnails before shipping (use the connect-staging-extensions repo).

Research direction

Start by locating the finalized gallery extension and example entries and the gallery card rendering path. Add thumbnails across the finalized set, then use the connect-staging-extensions repo to preview every rendered thumbnail. Done means each finalized card shows a meaningful icon instead of the generic puzzle-piece fallback.
