Note

Low Risk
Low risk documentation-only change with no runtime or API behavior modifications.

Overview
Adds a new Client credentials for programmatic access section to ai/model-context-protocol.mdx, describing how to generate a client ID/secret in the dashboard for machine-to-machine MCP access and use the client_credentials grant.

Includes a warning that the client secret is only shown once and must be stored securely (regenerate if lost).
