What is changed, added or deleted? (Required)

Multiple documentation updates across TiDB Cloud, Coprocessor Cache, and TiFlash docs:

  • coprocessor-cache.md: Add a note to state that the copr-cache panel is not available on Starter and Essential instances.
  • tidb-cloud/cli-reference.md: Mark TiDB Cloud CLI Reference title as "(Beta)".
  • tidb-cloud/create-tidb-cluster-serverless.md & tidb-cloud/tidb-cloud-quickstart.md: Improve note formatting, add a clarification that TiDB Cloud is fully managed, and add links to the CLI Reference (Beta). Also normalize SQL comment formatting in the quickstart.
  • tiflash/tiflash-results-materialization.md: Restore and relocate the "Execution process" and "Restrictions" sections (including platform-specific CustomContent blocks for tidb and tidb-cloud) after the example, and clean up formatting and wording.

These changes are mostly editorial and structural, improving clarity and surfacing the CLI reference and monitoring guidance.

Code Review

This pull request updates several documentation files to add information about the TiDB Cloud CLI (Beta), clarify that TiDB Cloud is a fully managed service, note the unavailability of the copr-cache panel on starter/essential instances, and reorganize sections in the TiFlash results materialization guide. The reviewer's feedback focuses on adhering to the style guide by correcting a typo, avoiding passive voice, writing in the second person, and removing unnecessary words (like "Currently") to improve clarity and conciseness.

Important

The consumer version of Gemini Code Assist on GitHub is being sunset. Starting June 18, 2026, new organization installations will be blocked, and all code review activity will officially cease on July 17, 2026.

There is a typo with a trailing single quote after STRICT_TRANS_TABLES (STRICT_TRANS_TABLES'). Let's remove it to read:

Remove an extra blank line at the end of tiflash/tiflash-results-materialization.md to clean up file formatting; no content changes to the document body.
Co-authored-by: gemini-code-assist[bot] <176961590+gemini-code-assist[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
Address minor grammar and clarity issues in tiflash-results-materialization.md: remove an extraneous apostrophe in the SQL mode clause, and rephrase the TiDB memory-limit notes to an active/consistent wording ("You can adjust...") in both TiDB and TiDB Cloud sections for clarity and consistency.
