Summary

Added MCP Server deployment option, expanded gateway method to include MCP Server targets, added new configuration fields for MCP Server URLs, and updated section numbering/references.

Security assessment

Changes focus on feature expansion (adding MCP Server support) and documentation structure updates. No security vulnerabilities, patches, or security-specific configurations are mentioned. The MCP Server URL requirement references standard protocol versions without security implications.
