Implement threshold-based FCM push payload builder
epic-certificate-expiry-notifications-orchestration-services-task-006 — Within the expiry notification orchestrator, build the push notification payload builder that produces distinct FCM message bodies for each threshold tier (60-day advance warning, 30-day warning, 7-day urgent, and lapsed). Each payload must include the mentor's name, certificate type, expiry date, and a deep-link route to the certificate renewal screen.

Implementation Notes
Implement as a stateless Dart class with a single build(MentorRecord record, NotificationThresholdTier tier) method returning FCMMessagePayload. Define all message template strings as private constants at the top of the class for easy localisation review. Use the intl package (already likely present for date formatting) with a fixed 'nb_NO' locale — do not rely on device locale for server-side payload construction. FCMMessagePayload should be a Dart sealed class or a simple data class with: title (String), body (String), data (Map
The deep-link scheme should match the Flutter app's registered URI scheme (confirm with frontend team before finalising). Keep lapsed-tier wording distinct enough to convey urgency without being alarmist — coordinate copy with product owner.
Testing Requirements
Unit tests (flutter_test): one test per threshold tier asserting exact title text, body text, date format, and deep-link value. Test date formatting with a fixed DateTime (e.g. 2026-06-15) to avoid locale flakiness. Test ArgumentError thrown when certificateId is empty string and when null.
Test that mentor name and certificate type appear verbatim in body. No integration tests required for this builder — it is pure logic. Coverage target: 100% of builder methods.
If the daily edge function runs more than once in a 24-hour window due to a Supabase scheduling anomaly or manual re-trigger, the orchestrator could dispatch duplicate push notifications to the same mentor and coordinator for the same threshold, eroding user trust.
Mitigation & Contingency
Mitigation: Implement idempotency at the notification record level using a unique constraint on (mentor_id, threshold_days, certification_id). The orchestrator checks for an existing record before dispatching. Use a database-level upsert with ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING.
Contingency: If duplicate notifications are reported in production, add a rate-limiting guard in the edge function that aborts if a notification for the same mentor and threshold was created within the last 20 hours, and add an alerting rule to Supabase logs for duplicate dispatch attempts.
The mentor visibility suppressor relies on the daily edge function to detect expiry and update suppression_status. A mentor whose certificate expires at midnight may remain visible for up to 24 hours if the cron runs at a fixed time, violating HLF's requirement that expired mentors disappear promptly.
Mitigation & Contingency
Mitigation: Schedule the edge function to run at 00:05 UTC to minimise lag after midnight transitions. Additionally, the RLS policy can include a direct date comparison (certification_expiry_date < now()) as a secondary predicate that does not rely on suppression_status, providing real-time enforcement at the database level.
Contingency: If the cron lag is unacceptable after launch, implement a Supabase database trigger on the certifications table that fires on UPDATE of expiry_date and calls the suppressor immediately, reducing lag to near-zero for renewal and expiry events.
The orchestrator needs to resolve the coordinator assigned to a specific peer mentor to dispatch coordinator-side notifications. If the assignment relationship is not normalised or is missing for some mentors, coordinator notifications will silently fail.
Mitigation & Contingency
Mitigation: Query the coordinator assignment from the existing assignments or user_roles table before dispatch. Log a structured warning (missing_coordinator_assignment: mentor_id) when no coordinator is found. Add a data quality check in the edge function that reports mentors without coordinators.
Contingency: If coordinator assignments are missing at scale, fall back to notifying the chapter-level admin role for the mentor's chapter, and surface a data quality report to the admin dashboard showing mentors without assigned coordinators.
The course enrollment prompt service generates deep-link URLs targeting the course administration feature. If the course administration feature changes its deep-link schema or the Dynamics portal URL structure changes, enrollment prompts will navigate to broken destinations.
Mitigation & Contingency
Mitigation: Define the deep-link contract between the certificate expiry feature and the course administration feature as a shared constant in a cross-feature navigation config. Version the deep-link schema and validate the generated URL format in unit tests.
Contingency: If the deep-link breaks in production, the course enrollment prompt service should gracefully fall back to opening the course administration feature root screen with a query parameter indicating the notification context, allowing the user to manually locate the correct course.
