## What it does

This skill queries the public Sumsub API to retrieve enabled verification checks as an `allowedChecks` dictionary. Creation tools run it prior to assembling payloads. If an entitlement is absent from the tenant setup, the agent halts execution and tells you which feature must be activated by support.

Under the hood, a Bash script runs `check_permissions.sh` and signs requests using your credentials. Setup requires exporting `SUMSUB_APP_TOKEN` and `SUMSUB_SECRET_KEY`. You can set `SUMSUB_BASE` to point to a custom host, but it defaults to `https://api.sumsub.com`.

Production keys are strictly prohibited: the script fails immediately if your token does not start with `sbx:`.
