I think the comics for the MCU only really did anything extra during the first phase, everything after were basically just comic form quick recaps to get you up to speed before the next movie with practically no new content whatsoever, at most just one or two lines that were never said and most likely conflict with what was seen on screen making them pretty much non-canon. And I'm pretty sure the comics have been labelled as none canon, especially since it was the comics that gave the MCU the 199999 universe number but since phase 4 they've been saying the MCU is 616 with the multiverse on screen having no connection whatsoever wiith the comic multiverse.

Also Agents of Shield was VERY early on in the MCU, it was after the first Avengers and for the longest time was the only content we got between movies, and after a certain point they diverged so much that they no longer became relevant to the movies and practically became its own thing. Some time around after Age of Ultron I believe these changes started to happen. So Agents of Shield was really only relevant to the movies during the second phase. And even then, outside of the Winter Soldier connection (Which is THE reason to watch AoS imo) most of these ties ultimately went nowhere because the films never reciprocated the same connection back. So in the end it was never really relevant to the overall story of the universe.
