# Check Identity Pack

Run an AFP 100-point or AUSTRAC safe-harbour identity check over a document set. Reports the points attained, per-document status, and **exactly what's missing** — so the user can request only the absent documents and re-run. Uses the Stipple API (free anonymous tier).

## When to use

- Onboarding employees, tenants, contractors, or customers in Australia
- KYC flows needing AFP 100-point or AUSTRAC safe-harbour compliance
- "Do these documents satisfy the 100-point check?"

## Instructions

1. **Get the documents.** Multiple file paths or URLs (PDF/images): passport, driver's licence, medicare card, bank statement, utility bill, etc.

2. **Choose the scheme:**
   - `afp_100_point` — the standard Australian 100-point system
   - `austrac_safe_harbour` — AUSTRAC safe-harbour identity verification

3. **Run the check.** POST the document set (multipart, multiple `files` parts):

   ```bash
   curl -X POST "https://www.stipple.sh/v1/identity-check?scheme=afp_100_point" \
     -F "files=@passport.pdf" \
     -F "files=@medicare-card.jpg" \
     -F "files=@bank-statement.pdf" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $STIPPLE_API_KEY"
   ```

4. **Interpret the response.**

   - `status` — complete / incomplete / failed
   - `points_total` — points attained (e.g. 95/100)
   - `checks[]` — per-document: type detected, point value, status
   - `missing[]` — **exactly what is missing** (e.g. "evidence of current residential address within last 3 months")

5. **Report with the gap list front and centre.** The product here is the *exactly-what's-missing* list — the user's onboarding UX can loop on it: request only what's absent, re-run, done.

6. **Important caveat.** Identity check answers *who is this* — it does NOT answer *is this document genuine*. A forged passport that matches the name scores points. For genuineness, pair with the `verify-document` skill on each document first.

## Output format

```
AFP 100-point check: incomplete

  points attained: 95/100
  - passport: 70 pts — ok
  - medicare_card: 25 pts — ok
  - drivers_licence: 40 pts — ok

  exactly what is missing:
    -> evidence of current residential address within last 3 months
```

## Limitations and Safety

- This workflow uploads identity and address documents to a hosted third-party
  service. Obtain the user's explicit approval before transmission, minimize the
  files and fields sent, and confirm the provider's current retention, residency,
  access, and deletion terms for the intended jurisdiction.
- A points result is an aid to review, not a legal KYC/AML determination. Verify
  scheme rules against current AFP, AUSTRAC, and organizational requirements and
  keep a qualified human reviewer responsible for the onboarding decision.
- Never treat a passing score as proof that a document is genuine or that the
  named person controls it; run independent authenticity and liveness checks where
  the decision warrants them.

## Notes

- Costs 2 credits per check; free weekly allowance applies
- Point values: passport 70, citizenship certificate 70, birth certificate 70, driver's licence 40, medicare card 25, bank statement 25, utility bill 25, council rates 25
- The check maps documents to the scheme and reports gaps — it does not verify document authenticity (use `verify-document` for that)
- Free key at https://www.stipple.sh for metering beyond the anonymous allowance
