+"""
+This example demonstrates the pause key capabilities for token management using the Hiero Python SDK.
+
+It shows:
+1. Creating a token *without* a pause key
+2. Attempting to pause it — expected failure
+3. Creating a token *with* a pause key
+4. Successfully pausing and unpausing the token
+5. Demonstrating that transfers fail while the token is paused
+
+Required environment variables:
+- OPERATOR_ID
+- OPERATOR_KEY
+
+Usage:
+uv run examples/token_create_transaction_pause_key.py
