AI Coding Instructions

• Keep Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens configuration in the API authentication setup rather than in client-side code.
• Pass token validation parameters through the existing authentication pipeline.
• Ensure signing keys, issuers, and audiences match the identity provider configuration.
• Do not log bearer tokens, signing keys, or token validation details in API responses.
