Production caveat: Biometric verification is the highest-stakes Singpass product: production access is approval-gated, results must be verified server-side, and stored face data or match scores carry PDPA duties — keep retention minimal and documented.

Help me set up the correct onboarding/authentication path and make the first valid request ~ explain exactly where credentials go and what must happen before production.
