Research direction
The issue points to two specific lines in the Redoc codebase: src/common elements/fields layout.ts (line 208) and src/common elements/headers.ts (line 47). The fix involves adding CSS custom properties (variables) to these elements so that they respect the theme configuration. Review the existing variable usage in other components to ensure consistency, then apply the same pattern to the listed elements. No linked PRs or comments exist, so the approach is straightforward once the theme variable naming convention is understood.
