A lot of #MCP talk is about which #tools an #agent can call. The quieter gap is which #identity those tools run as once a call is allowed.#MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. In plain terms, it is a way to connect an #AI agent to tools like your inbox, cloud console, or a database. Teams often debate which of those tools the agent is allowed to open. Identity here means something simpler: after a tool is allowed, is the agent acting as you, as a shared service account, or as its own account. That choice decides whose name shows up when something goes wrong.
