Documentation Updates - 2026-05-12

This PR updates documentation based on fixes merged in the last 24 hours.

Features Documented

Changes Made

  • Updated docs/src/content/docs/getting-started/authentication.md to document that full `(dev.azure.com/redacted) URLs are accepted in addition to the shorthand form, with examples for both standard and sub-path installs.
  • Updated docs/src/content/docs/enterprise/policy-reference.md:
    • Clarified that a file is "tracked by APM" only if it was produced by an installed plugin (pre-existing files count as unmanaged).
    • Clarified unmanaged_files.action inheritance: omitting the block in a child policy is "no opinion" and preserves the parent value unchanged.
  • Updated docs/src/content/docs/consumer/install-mcp-servers.md to note that Cursor's MCP config uses Cursor-native schema (type: stdio / type: http).

Pull request overview

This PR updates the Starlight docs to reflect recent APM behavior changes around Azure DevOps dependency URL parsing, policy inheritance semantics for unmanaged_files, unmanaged-file provenance, and Cursor MCP config schema details.

Changes:

  • Document that Azure DevOps dependencies accept both shorthand (dev.azure.com/...) and full https://dev.azure.com/... URL forms, including sub-path installs.
  • Clarify unmanaged-files governance semantics (what counts as managed/tracked) and how unmanaged_files.action behaves under policy inheritance when omitted by a child policy.
  • Note that Cursor uses a Cursor-native MCP server schema (type: stdio / type: http) in .cursor/mcp.json.

Detect files in governance directories that are not tracked by APM.

A file is "tracked by APM" only if it was produced by an installed plugin. Pre-existing files that APM did not deploy are counted as unmanaged even if they reside in a governed directory.
```bash
apm install dev.azure.com/myorg/myproject/myrepo#main
apm install https://dev.azure.com/myorg/myproject/_git/myrepo # full URL also accepted
apm install mycompany.visualstudio.com/org/project/repo # legacy URL
