114-129: Fix copy-paste breakage for the multi-line login command and tighten the note

Without line continuations, the example won’t run if pasted. Also, explicitly state that including --client_secret switches to client-credentials (not device flow) and what token/API that yields.

 ```bash
-kinde login
-    --domain <your Kinde business domain>
-    --client_id [optional]
+kinde login \
+  --domain <your Kinde business domain> \
+  --client_id [optional]

-Note: Providing only client_id will issue a user token, while providing both client_id and client_secret will use the client credentials authentication flow.
+Note: Device authorization issues a user access token for the Account API. If you also supply --client_secret, the CLI will use the client credentials (M2M) flow instead (no browser step) and issue a client credentials token for the Management API.

97-101: Clarify Device Authorization parameters and token terminology in the table

Make --client_id clearly optional (default app may be used) and call out “user access token” + “Account API (user context)” to avoid ambiguity with ID tokens and M2M.

-| **Device Authorization** | `--client_id` only | User token | Interactive user authentication | Account API |
+| **Device Authorization** | `--client_id` (optional; uses default app if omitted) | User access token | Interactive user authentication | Account API (user context) |

102-113: Cross-link the M2M setup requirement where the command is shown

Users often try this before reading the section below. Add a short pointer to the setup guide/scopes here.

-This flow provides a client credentials token that can be used to call the management API.
+This flow provides a client credentials token that can be used to call the management API. Ensure your M2M application is authorized for the Management API and has the required scopes (see the Setup Guide below).

177-180: Great security callout

Clear, prominent guidance that Management API is disabled by default and requires an authorized M2M app with scopes.

Remove or correct the automatic-loading claim.

The repository contains no public/index.html, stylesheet, @font-face declaration, or BlockchainFont/TechMono font file. Files in public/fonts/ are not loaded by their presence, so this statement is inaccurate. Describe the actual loading mechanism or add the required assets and declarations.
