Research direction

No source files or tests are identified. First reproduce the bKash Merchant OTP flow on Android 14 with microG Services, then trace the Android SMS Retriever handling and compare it with the expected permission popup. Done means the popup appears after the OTP SMS is received, without breaking the working flow in other bKash apps.
