x-ae-provenance: origin unrecorded (catalog pass before 2026-09); NOT a provider-published document. Kept on 2026-10-08 because its /xms/v1/{service_plan_id}/... paths match the SMS REST API reference nav at https://developers.sinch.com/docs/sms/api-reference (Batches, Delivery reports, Groups, Inbounds), which publishes no downloadable OpenAPI bundle (searched 2026-10-08). Moved out of _original/ because _original asserts provider publication.
