[MCP SDK clients] 'Protected resource <X> does not match expected <Y> (or origin)' — RFC 9728 metadata 'resource' differs from the URL the client connected to

Cause (Documented platform behavior): Clients verify the PRM 'resource' is the connected URL (or its origin) before using it as the RFC 8707 resource indicator; mismatches are rejected to prevent token mis-binding. Fix status: documented_behavior Misleading approaches: - Changing client config to the internal URL — tokens then bind to the wrong audience.
