And the recently discovered Copy Fail by Xint code is another proof that the gating is overblown: https://xint.io/blog/copy-fail-linux-distributions

authnopuz··on AI Agent Authentication and Authorization IETF RFC Draft
One of the Co-Authors here

There are two elements here. Agent can start a full authorization request with AS through authorization code grant flow, even requiring a step-up or some rich authorization details, therefore whatever OTP by SMS or Magic link is an AS - Subject/Client "problem".

For Agent that cannot start a full authorization request (too costly, to complex, subject directly unreachable at the moment), we have a mention to OpenID Connect CIBA into it. With it, the Agent will start a back channel authorization request with the AS and the AS will use a method of authentication / confirmation with the subject in front channel, for example sending a SMS or sending a link to click. Again the resolution will remain an AS - Subject/Client "problem".

authnopuz··on The Agentic Systems Series
The authentication section is very bizarre, the Agent should go through an OAuth(2?) process to finally access server through an API Key? That sounds more painful than bringing a better state of security...
