I would say Black Widow and Hawkeye only really became superheroes when they joined the Avengers and started using their exceptional abilities to protect the general public from threats on a consistent basis. Before that they were just government agents.
I haven't watched the Agent Carter series, but what does she do in that series that makes her qualify as a superhero?
It's been a long time since I watched, but iirc she protects the general public from threats on a consistent basis, including in direct defiance of corrupt legal superiors. And I'd say that description qualifies well enough for activity as part of Cap's unit in TFA, too, though that was mostly relegated to a montage.
