    abstract =  {This document defines the Task-Context HTTP field for propagating task execution context from an authorized workflow worker to downstream HTTP services. The field carries a compact, base64url- encoded JSON object that identifies the authorization mode, workflow type, and either task-based requestor and approver context or role- based execution context. The field is not a bearer credential and does not replace HTTP client authentication, service-to-service authorization, or resource-local policy checks. Its purpose is to let downstream services correlate requests with workflow task context and make service-local authorization and audit decisions using that context.},
