Closes #6442

Description:

Adds Angular-specific MCP workflow documentation based on the shared MCP topic structure, adapted for Ignite UI for Angular.

Checklist:

  • check topic's TOC/menu and paragraph headings
  • Include TOC topic labels in topic content has a valuable update, it's new or considered as preview\ beta
  • link to other topics using ../relative/path.md
  • at the References section at the end of the topic add links to topics, samples, etc
  • reference API documentation instead of adding a section with API

  • use valid component names - [Data] Grid, IgxSelectComponent, <igx-combo>
  • use spell checker tool (VS Code, Grammarly, Microsoft Editor)
  • add inline code blocks for the names of classes / tags / properties
  • add language descriptor for the code blocks
  • check broken links (use browser add-on)
  • check if sample is working and fully visible in the topic
  • check if sample is working and fully visible in the StackBlitz
  • check if code blocks match the code in StackBlitz demo


  • do not resolve requested changes (leave that to the reviewer)
  • add pending-localization label when the review of the PR is done
  • add a member from the localization team to translate it

The front matter sets last_updated: "2025-04-03", which appears inconsistent with this being a newly added topic (and is the only last_updated field in the repo). This can mislead readers and may be ignored by the docs pipeline if the field isn’t supported. Consider either removing last_updated entirely to match existing topic metadata, or updating it to the actual publish/update date and standardizing the field across the docs if it’s intended to be used.
