## What kind of change does this PR introduce?
Docs update for the MCP cost confirmation launch
([AI-1161](https://linear.app/supabase/issue/AI-1161/write-the-docs)).
## What is the current behavior?
The MCP server guide lists `get_cost` / `confirm_cost` but doesn't
describe the elicitation-based cost confirmation flow that
`@supabase/mcp-server-supabase` 0.12.0 introduces for `create_project`
and `create_branch` on form-capable clients.
## What is the new behavior?
- New **Cost confirmation** section in the MCP server guide: how the
elicitation flow works (accept / decline / expiry / rate-change
outcomes, all side-effect-free except accept), the zero-cost skip,
client support, and how to tell which cost flow a connection uses.
- New troubleshooting entry: "Cost confirmations do not appear in your
MCP client".
- Three `supa-mdx-lint` dictionary additions the new prose needs
(`elicitation(s)`, `dialogs`, `pauses`).
## Additional context
**Draft — hold until launch.** Merge gates before publishing:
1. The feature is enabled for hosted connections.
2. The client support table is re-verified against launch verification
results (there's a matching `{/* ... */}` reviewer note above the
table). Client support moves quickly; the table reflects verification as
of 2026-09-04.
Needs review:
- **Rate-change behavior follows the shipped code, not the spec docs**:
on any change to the computed cost between confirmation and creation
(including a decrease), the server reissues a fresh confirmation rather
than proceeding (`account-tools.ts` redemption path in supabase/mcp).
Flagging in case the intent was lower-or-equal proceeds.
- No exact confirmation expiry is stated because the TTL is
deployment-configured (`ttlSeconds`).
- Wording deliberately says "client-mediated" style confirmation and
avoids claiming a person approved each action, since clients can answer
elicitations via hooks.
Test plan: `supa-mdx-lint` clean on both files; Prettier (repo config)
clean. No runnable snippets, so no sandbox verification needed. Vercel
preview link will appear below.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* Added advanced options to hosted MCP connections for skipping selected
cost or destructive-SQL confirmations when supported. Available options
depend on connection scope, enabled features, and read-only settings.
* The configuration panel explains when skip selections are unavailable
or ignored by certain client configurations.
* **Documentation**
* Added guidance on cost and SQL confirmation prompts, Edge Function
secret entry, and troubleshooting missing prompts or unavailable secret
collection. This includes client requirements, fallback behavior, and
relevant security considerations.
