Fix status: documented_behavior Other error fragments: - does not match the expected URI ( Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/modelcontextprotocol/csharp-sdk/c40ee044fd415c70da5176c749cb5ef02f2b59f6/src/ModelContextProtocol.Core/Authentication/ClientOAuthProvider.cs (github_source, unknown, documented_behavior): VerifyResourceMatch accepts exact normalized match or authority-only base URL; otherwise throws the mismatch McpException; null resource returns false.
