Description

Adds the 2026-05-11 weekly update post covering:

  • Redis topology support for the embedded auth server. The MCPExternalAuthConfig resource now accepts Redis standalone and Redis Cluster alongside the existing Sentinel option, so operators can match the Redis deployment their platform already runs.
  • Client ID Metadata Document (CIMD) support in the thv CLI. The CLI can present a hosted metadata document to upstream IdPs instead of going through dynamic client registration, avoiding stale client entries from short-lived MCP clients. Embedded authorization server support is still in development; this release lands CIMD in the local CLI experience first.

Cover Redis topology support (standalone, cluster, Sentinel) for the
embedded auth server's session storage, and Client ID Metadata Document
(CIMD) support landing in the ToolHive CLI ahead of the embedded
authorization server rollout.

Lead both sections with the user pain point and value: pluggable Redis
topologies for platforms that don't run Sentinel, and dropping dynamic
client registration churn via CIMD in the CLI. Reorder the title and
description to match.

Update page title and section H2s to consistent product-focused wording:
"Plug ToolHive into your existing Redis setup" and "ToolHive CLI now
supports CIMD".

- Update sidebar_label to "Redis flexibility" per @danbarr.
- Soften the Redis section so Sentinel isn't positioned as the only
  production-ready topology; acknowledge managed Redis services that
  handle HA via standalone or cluster modes.
- Lead the CIMD section with the upstream MCP spec shift from Dynamic
  Client Registration to CIMD.

Addressed in f7f40d0:

  • sidebar_label: switched to 'May 11: Redis flexibility and CIMD in the CLI' — agree, "flexibility" is the more accurate framing.
  • Redis production framing: rewrote the section so Sentinel isn't positioned as the only production-ready topology. Now acknowledges that managed Redis services typically handle HA transparently via standalone or cluster mode, and that Sentinel is for self-hosted HA specifically. @reyortiz3 — worth a sanity check on the new wording.
  • CIMD vs DCR upstream context: section now opens with the MCP authentication spec shifting from Dynamic Client Registration (DCR) to CIMD as the preferred pattern, so the reader sees this isn't ad-hoc — it tracks upstream.
