Add managed auth CLI reference page

[masnwilliams]

Summary

• Adds a Managed Auth CLI reference page (reference/cli/managed-auth.mdx) documenting kernel auth connections, kernel credentials, and kernel credential-providers — none of which were previously documented.
• Adds the page to the CLI nav, ordered after Browsers and Apps (so Browsers comes first, not managed auth).
• Documents kernel status, kernel upgrade, and kernel completion on the CLI index.

Keeps the existing single-page-per-area CLI layout — managed auth is its own page rather than living under the CLI Authentication page (which covers authenticating the CLI itself).

Flags were taken directly from kernel <command> --help of a local build.

Notes

• docs.json validated; all CLI nav pages resolve to files.
• Did not render with mintlify dev (no preview env here).

Test plan

• mintlify dev renders the new page without MDX errors
• Managed Auth appears after Browsers/Apps in the CLI sidebar
• Cross-links to /auth/overview, /auth/programmatic, /auth/credentials, /auth/profiles resolve

Note

Low Risk
Documentation-only changes; no application or CLI behavior is modified.

Overview
Adds Managed Auth to the CLI docs: a new reference/cli/managed-auth page in the CLI tab nav, a homepage card linking to it, and a Utility Commands section on the CLI index for kernel status, kernel upgrade, and kernel completion.

The new page documents managed auth connections (kernel auth connections CRUD, login, submit, follow), credentials (kernel credentials including TOTP), and credential providers (kernel credential-providers), with flags aligned to the shipped CLI and links to the existing /auth/* guides.

This PR didn't match the auto-monitor filter configured on your GitHub connection:

PRs in the kernel, infra, hypeman, and hypeship repos. kernel is a ~mono repo with many logical services underneath, ensure to focus on the implicated service for the PR

Reason: This PR only edits documentation (MDX files in docs), not the kernel service code itself, so it doesn't require deploy monitoring.

Risk assessment: Very Low

Evidence from the diff: this PR only updates reference/cli.mdx and reference/cli/auth.mdx with CLI reference documentation for managed auth connections, credentials, credential providers, and utility commands. There are no executable code changes, config changes, infrastructure changes, model prompt/instruction changes, schema changes, or auth/permission logic changes.

I did not find a CODEOWNERS file in the repository, and the PR did not already have an approval in the review metadata I checked, so approval is appropriate for this risk level.

Risk assessment: Very Low

Evidence from the actual diff: the current head changes only Mintlify documentation/navigation files: docs.json, reference/cli.mdx, and a new reference/cli/managed-auth.mdx. The update adds a sidebar entry, a CLI index card/utility-command docs, and a new managed-auth CLI reference page. There are no executable code changes, infrastructure changes, schema changes, prompt/instruction-file changes, or production auth/permission logic changes.

I also compared the new head against the previously approved commit. The synchronized update primarily moves managed-auth CLI documentation out of reference/cli/auth.mdx into its own page and adds it to navigation, so the risk has not increased. I found no CODEOWNERS file in the repository, and the PR already has an approval, so I’m leaving this comment-only assessment rather than re-approving.

Risk assessment: Very Low

Evidence from the actual diff: the synchronized PR still only changes Mintlify documentation and docs navigation. The current head modifies docs.json to reorganize the CLI sidebar and adds/splits CLI reference MDX pages under reference/cli/* for browsers, managed auth, credentials, deployments, invocations, profiles, proxies, and related commands. I found no executable code changes, infrastructure changes, schema changes, model prompt/instruction changes, or production auth/permission logic changes.

The larger synchronized diff is a docs reorganization, but it doesn't expand beyond the documentation surface, so the risk has not increased out of the prior Very Low category. I found no CODEOWNERS file in the repository. The PR already has an approval recorded, so I’m leaving this comment-only reassessment rather than re-approving.

Risk assessment: Very Low

Evidence from the actual diff: the current head changes only Mintlify documentation/navigation files: docs.json, reference/cli.mdx, and the new reference/cli/managed-auth.mdx. The diff adds one CLI sidebar entry, one CLI index card plus utility-command docs, and a managed-auth CLI reference page. I found no executable code changes, infrastructure changes, schema changes, model prompt/instruction changes, or production auth/permission logic changes.

The PR is already approved in GitHub review metadata, and I found no CODEOWNERS file in the repository, so I’m leaving this comment-only reassessment rather than re-approving. The synchronized update does not increase risk; it narrows the previous broader CLI docs split back to this docs-only surface.
