Will approve here. But something I noticed that will be needed in the follow up is a change to enqueueMCPGatewayExtForSecret that maps a secret change to MCPGatewayExtension reconcile requests. We will want to check if the change is from a ref secret
Adds the guardrails/external/nemo Secret schema (url, configIDs, model, failMode) and EnsureNeMoConfigData to validate and parse it. Wires validation into the MCPGatewayExtension reconciler via the mcp.kuadrant.io/guardrails-ref annotation, and adds the config propagation scaffolding (GuardrailsConfig, MCPServer.GuardrailsConfigIDs, BrokerConfig.GlobalGuardrailsConfigIDs) plus the maxBodyBytes spec field and new status condition reasons.

Reject negative maxBodyBytes values.
Both schemas accept negative byte limits. A negative body limit has no safe downstream meaning and can produce an invalid or overflowed router limit. Add a minimum validation marker, then regenerate the CRD.

Assert all persisted guardrails fields.
The test does not verify ConfigIDs or FailMode. A regression that drops either field during YAML serialization will pass.
Compare the complete GuardrailsConfig, or add assertions for both fields.

Enqueue extensions that reference guardrails Secrets.
enqueueMCPGatewayExtForSecret does not check mcp.kuadrant.io/guardrails-ref. Secret creation, deletion, or updates can leave globalGuardrails stale or prevent recovery from a missing Secret.

Correct the package documentation.
This package validates and parses guardrails Secret data. The shown implementation does not check tool requests or responses. Remove that claim until this package implements it.
