Start in common/authorization/default_token_key_provider.go around the referenced line, where the default ClaimMapper currently handles RS256 and ES256 tokens. Trace the existing key and algorithm handling, then verify that EdDSA with the Ed25519 curve is accepted by the relevant authorization tests or validation path.
