How do I access the template I created?

I've set up an Ansible script to build a very basic Debian 12 container. Unfortunately, apt dist-upgrade hangs for 10 minutes the first time it's run, so I want to create a template from the point where that command finally finishes (I need to apt dist-upgrade because the base image openssh-server is broken).

So I ran:

Code:
root@nuc13:~/ansible-stuff# pct template 100
  Renamed "vm-100-disk-0" to "base-100-disk-0" in volume group "pve"
  Logical volume pve/base-100-disk-0 changed.
  WARNING: Combining activation change with other commands is not advised.

Then to check, I ran:

Code:
root@nuc13:~/ansible-stuff# pveam list local
NAME                                                         SIZE
local:vztmpl/debian-12-standard_12.2-1_amd64.tar.zst         120.29MB
local:vztmpl/ubuntu-22.04-standard_22.04-1_amd64.tar.zst     123.81MB

... which is exactly what was there before I started. Where is my template?
