cometchat-flutter-v6-migration

Upgrade a Flutter app from CometChat UI Kit v5 → v6 (`cometchat_chat_uikit` ^5 → ^6). Reads the repo's CometChat usage, applies the breaking-change map (removed shells, the deleted extension architecture, GetX → BLoC, renamed widgets), and verifies the build. Triggers: 'upgrade my v5 uikit to v6', 'migrate cometchat flutter v5 to v6', 'cometchat flutter v5 to v6', 'bump cometchat_chat_uikit'.

> **Ground truth:** the removed-symbol map in `references/migration-guide.md` is derived from a REAL diff — every prior-pack symbol was compiled against the published 6.1.0, and the 45 that no longer resolve are recorded with their replacement (`COVERAGE-flutter-v6.md`). v6 target symbols are catalog-verified. The prop-by-prop table is FETCHED from `upgrading-from-v5`. **Transform the user's code — never wipe it; work on a branch and confirm before bulk edits.**

## Companion skills (read first)
- `cometchat-flutter-v6-core` — the v6 init/login/render the migrated app lands on. This skill ASSUMES it.
- `cometchat-flutter-v6-components` — the v6 widget catalog (the target names).

## Use this skill when
"upgrade my v5 UI Kit to v6", "migrate CometChat Flutter v5→v6", "bump `cometchat_chat_uikit`". Precondition: the project currently has `cometchat_chat_uikit` ^5.

## Prerequisites & install
A clean branch. Then `flutter pub add cometchat_chat_uikit:^6.1.0` (and `cometchat_calls_sdk:^5.0.4` if the app calls). Remove `cometchat_uikit_shared` **and `cometchat_calls_uikit`** — neither exists as a package in v6; calling now ships inside the chat package behind a second barrel.

**Expect `pub get` to fail once on a peer constraint.** The kit tightens transitive pins (e.g. 6.1.0 needs `permission_handler ^12`, so an app on `^11` will not resolve). Bump the app's pin to what the solver names — never downgrade the kit to fit the app.
