📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request reorganizes the root navigation structure by introducing new top-level sections for Develop, Manage, and Agentic AI, each containing extensively nested topics and cross-references. Concurrently, previously existing navigation blocks are removed and replaced with the new hierarchical structure. Additionally, a new AsciiDoc page is created at modules/ai-agents/pages/mcp/index.adoc documenting the Model Context Protocol with deployment options for Remote MCP and Redpanda Cloud Management MCP Server.

How this renders seems a bit noisy: https://deploy-preview-490--rp-cloud.netlify.app/redpanda-cloud/ai-agents/mcp/ Could we consider either:

• changing the individual page descriptions so that, for example, "Redpanda Cloud Management MCP Server" incorporates the new description "Connect your local AI development environment to manage Redpanda Cloud resources", or
• disabling the auto links (I forget how to do this) and instead linking to each page from the custom list?

yeah, I think Jake is updating this & not sure if local MCP (Cloud Management MCP) belongs under Agentic AI... but he can update that with his PRs

Given its importance/positioning I think Agentic AI should appear above Networking and Security in this navtree.
