Description

4.3 says:

For autonomous agent use cases, the context MUST include the identity of the agent. At least one field of either the subject or the context MUST be derived from the token input variable via a CEL expression.

However, the same MCP tool can be invoked by both an autonomous agent and an agent acting on behalf of a user. The COAZ mapping is the same for all callers, though. Suggest removing the "For autonomous agent use cases" part and strengthening to "The context MUST include the identity of the agent".

Splitting from #483

Research direction

Start with section 4.3 and compare the proposed wording change with the context from issue #483. Determine whether requiring the agent identity in the context consistently covers both autonomous agents and agents acting for users, then confirm that the specification text clearly reflects the agreed behavior.
