cometchat-flutter-v6-push

Add push notifications to a Flutter app with CometChat — FCM on Android, FCM/APNs on iOS, registered through CometChatNotifications with the Dashboard provider as the sender. THIN + docs-first: the Firebase setup is FETCHED from CometChat's notifications docs; this skill bakes the SDK symbols and the token lifecycle. Triggers: 'add push notifications in flutter', 'FCM push flutter', 'notify me when the app is closed', 'cometchat push flutter'.

> **Ground truth — DOCS-FIRST.** Push is an EXTERNAL integration (a Firebase project, native config on both platforms, and a Dashboard provider), not a UI Kit widget. The current setup lives in **CometChat's notifications docs — FETCH them**, via `../cometchat-flutter-v6-core/references/docs-map.md` → `/notifications/push-overview` · `/notifications/flutter-push-notifications-android` · `/notifications/flutter-push-notifications-ios`. (The old singular `/notifications/flutter-push-notifications` now redirects to a legacy page — use the per-platform pages above.) This skill bakes ONLY the SDK symbols (verified vs `cometchat_sdk` 5.0.6) and the hardening deltas. **Symbols baked; the step-by-step is fetched.**

## Companion skills (read first)
- `cometchat-flutter-v6-core` — install, credentials, `init→login→render`. This skill ASSUMES it (push registers AFTER login, on the SAME SDK).
- `cometchat-flutter-v6-events` — the listener lifecycle; a push registration is a lifecycle-bound side effect.

## Use this skill when
"add push notifications", "FCM push", "notify me when the app is closed / backgrounded".

## Build it — FETCH the docs, then apply the deltas
1. **FETCH the setup** (source of truth): the notifications docs above. Follow their Firebase project creation, `google-services.json` / `GoogleService-Info.plist` placement, the Gradle/Podfile changes, and (iOS) the APNs key upload. **If the docs are wrong or missing a step, that is a DOCS gap — flag it (`RULES.md` §20), don't bake a permanent workaround.**
2. **Dashboard prerequisite:** configure the **push provider in the CometChat Dashboard** — it is the SENDER. Note the **provider ID**; registration needs it. Without this, nothing is ever delivered no matter how correct the client is.
3. **Install:** `flutter pub add firebase_core firebase_messaging`. `CometChatNotifications` ships with the already-installed `cometchat_sdk` — no extra CometChat package.
