Thanks for opening this PR! Here are a few tips to help make the review process smooth for everyone.

PR title guidelines

  • Use imperative mood: "Fix X" not "Fixed X" or "Fixes X"
  • Be specific: "Fix panic in catalog sync when controller restarts" not "Fix bug" or "Update catalog code"
  • Prefix with area if helpful: compute: , storage: , adapter: , sql:

Pre-merge checklist

  • The PR title is descriptive and will make sense in the git log.
  • This PR has adequate test coverage / QA involvement has been duly considered. (trigger-ci for additional test/nightly runs)
  • If this PR includes major user-facing behavior changes, I have pinged the relevant PM to schedule a changelog post.
  • This PR has an associated up-to-date design doc, is a design doc (template), or is sufficiently small to not require a design.
  • If this PR evolves an existing $T ⇔ Proto$T mapping (possibly in a backwards-incompatible way), then it is tagged with a T-proto label.
  • If this PR will require changes to cloud orchestration or tests, there is a companion cloud PR to account for those changes that is tagged with the release-blocker label (example).

Fix MCP token encoding and service account handling;
a3f2ff0 
- Use unicode-safe base64 encoding (TextEncoder) instead of btoa, which
  fails on non-ASCII service account names
- Use the service account user instead of the logged-in user's email
  when generating MCP tokens for service account app passwords
- Show MCP token under app password only when MCP Server tab is active
- Add Agents/Developer radio group to MCP instructions so users can
  switch endpoints without a separate observatory section
- Rename observatory endpoint references to developer (per MaterializeInc#35918)
- Add -w0 flag to base64 command for Linux compatibility
