📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAdds a new “September 2025” subsection to the “What’s New in Redpanda Cloud” page. The section announces the Redpanda Cloud MCP Server (beta) and describes connecting AI assistants (for example, Claude) to a Redpanda Cloud account via a local MCP server. It lists example natural-language prompts for managing clusters and topics, mentions automatic handling, and links to overview and quickstart docs. The content is inserted between the existing page introduction and the August 2025 section. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

13-18: Polish copy, add RBAC/credentials note, and format prompts as code.Tighten phrasing, avoid brand-forward “like Claude,” and clarify that actions respect the user’s Cloud API credentials/RBAC. Format sample prompts as inline code for consistency.

9-12: Section placement and heading level look correct.Newest month at top and “beta” styling matches prior entries.
13-16: Cross-references verified — targets found.
Found modules/ai-agents/pages/mcp/local/overview.adoc and modules/ai-agents/pages/mcp/local/quickstart.adoc; xrefs in modules/get-started/pages/whats-new-cloud.adoc and modules/ROOT/nav.adoc point to them.
