     **The gateway MUST validate `iss` AND `aud`, not just the signature.** Signature + issuer alone accepts *any* token from the same tenant, including tokens issued to unrelated apps. In `id_token` mode the audience is the `clientId`:
 
-    ```yaml theme={null}
+    ```yaml theme={null} theme={null} theme={null} theme={null}
     # LiteLLM example — `audience` is REQUIRED, not optional

 Single sign-on is enabled by setting `inferenceCredentialKind` to `interactive` **and** supplying `inferenceGatewayOidc`. Both are required — `interactive` alone (without `inferenceGatewayOidc`) selects a different mode where the gateway itself acts as the authorization server.

 The `inferenceGatewayOidc` value is one JSON object with these fields:

 ## Troubleshoot
 
-**`gateway SSO: server does not advertise device_authorization_endpoint`** — The app could not read your `inferenceGatewayOidc` value, so it fell back to treating the gateway itself as the sign-in server. Almost always this means the value is not a valid JSON string (for example, separate dotted keys, or a plist `<dict>` instead of a `<string>`). Re-export from the in-app configuration window, or copy the `.mobileconfig` snippet above.
+**`gateway SSO: server does not advertise device_authorization_endpoint`** — The app could not read your `inferenceGatewayOidc` value, so it fell back to treating the gateway itself as the sign-in server. Almost always this means the value is missing or not valid JSON, for example because it was written as separate dotted keys instead of one `inferenceGatewayOidc` value. Re-export from the in-app configuration window, or copy the `.mobileconfig` snippet above.
 
 **`OIDC discovery failed (HTTP 404)` or `(HTTP 405)`** — The `issuer` value is not the issuer base URL. Most often the metadata URI (ending in `/.well-known/openid-configuration`) was pasted instead, which doubles the path. Remove that suffix so `issuer` is just `https://YOUR_ORG.okta.com` (or the equivalent for your provider).
