Add inline authorization example for MCPServer#948
Merged
Conversation
Present ConfigMap and inline Cedar policy options side by side via tabs in the authorization section, matching how MCPRemoteProxy documents authzConfig.type: inline. Note the tradeoff: inline suits small, server-specific policy sets; ConfigMap suits larger or shared ones. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Pull request overview
This PR updates the Kubernetes Operator authorization guide to document MCPServer.spec.authzConfig.type: inline alongside the existing ConfigMap-based approach, using a tabbed layout to help readers choose between the two.
Changes:
- Adds a brief comparison of ConfigMap vs inline Cedar policy sources for
MCPServer. - Wraps the existing ConfigMap-based flow in a
Tabs/TabItemlayout and adds an inline-policy alternative. - Introduces an inline
MCPServerYAML example usingauthzConfig.inline.policies, plus guidance aboutentitiesJson.

Description
Adds an inline Cedar authorization example for MCPServer in
auth-k8s.mdx. The guide previously showed only ConfigMap-based policies for MCPServer; this adds theauthzConfig.type: inlineoption (already documented for MCPRemoteProxy) in a tabbed layout, with guidance on when to choose each approach. TheauthzConfig.inlinestructure was verified against the MCPServer CRD schema.Note: this branch is based on current
main, so its ConfigMap example still includes thepermissionProfilefield that #945 removes. It merges cleanly with #945, but should land after it (or be rebased onto it) so the ConfigMap example stays consistent.Type of change
Related issues/PRs
Addresses a gap in #655. Should sequence after #945.
