+## Scope Configuration
+
+### Scope Behavior
+
+The middleware supports two modes for handling OAuth 2.0 scopes, controlled by the `overrideScopes` parameter:
+
+#### Default Append Mode (`overrideScopes: false`)
+
+By default, the middleware uses an **append** behavior for OAuth 2.0 scopes:
+
+- **Default scopes** are always included: `["openid", "profile", "email"]`
+- **User-provided scopes** are appended to the defaults with automatic deduplication
+- The final scope list maintains the order: defaults first, then user scopes
+
+#### Override Mode (`overrideScopes: true`)
+
+When `overrideScopes` is set to `true`, the middleware uses **replacement** behavior:
+
+- Default scopes are **not** automatically included
+- Only the scopes explicitly provided in the `scopes` field are used
+- You must include all required scopes explicitly, including `openid` if needed
+
+### Examples:
+
+**Default behavior (no custom scopes):**
+```yaml
+# No scopes field specified
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "email"]
+```
+
+**Default append behavior:**
+```yaml
+scopes:
+  - roles
+  - custom_scope
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "email", "roles", "custom_scope"]
+```
+
+**Overlapping scopes with append (automatic deduplication):**
+```yaml
+scopes:
+  - openid      # Duplicate - will be deduplicated
+  - roles
+  - profile     # Duplicate - will be deduplicated
+  - permissions
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "email", "roles", "permissions"]
+```
+
+**Using override mode:**
+```yaml
+overrideScopes: true
+scopes:
+  - openid
+  - profile
+  - custom_scope
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "custom_scope"]
+```
+
+**Empty scopes list with default behavior:**
+```yaml
+scopes: []
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "email"]
+```
+
+**Empty scopes list with override mode:**
+```yaml
+overrideScopes: true
+scopes: []
+# Result: [] (Warning: empty scopes may cause authentication to fail)
+```
+
+The default append behavior ensures essential OIDC scopes are always present, while the override mode gives you complete control over the exact scopes requested from the provider.
