  observations:
  - HS256 is advertised for ID token signing alongside RS256/PS256 — a symmetric option
    that FAPI-grade profiles disallow.
  - The `implicit` response types and the `password` grant remain enabled on the tenant.
  - PKCE advertises `plain` in addition to `S256`.
downstream_auth:
  note: 'Ambience authenticates OUTBOUND into customer EHRs as a client. Per the provider''s
    informatics page it uses SMART on FHIR for Epic (deployed via the Epic Toolbox
    inside Hyperspace and Haiku), the athenahealth Marketplace / MDP programme for
    athenahealth, and FHIR plus REST APIs for Oracle Cerner Millennium.'
