+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pnpm add @manacore/notify-client
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { NotifyClient } from '@manacore/notify-client';
+
+const notify = new NotifyClient({
+  serviceUrl: 'http://localhost:3040',
+  serviceKey: process.env.MANA_NOTIFY_SERVICE_KEY,
+  appId: 'your-app-id',
+});
+
+// Send email
+await notify.sendEmail({
+  to: 'user@example.com',
+  template: 'auth-password-reset',
+  data: { resetUrl: 'https://...', userName: 'Max' },
+});
+
+// Send push notification
+await notify.sendPush({
+  userId: 'user-uuid',
+  title: 'New Message',
+  body: 'You have a new message',
+  data: { messageId: 'xxx' },
+});
+
+// Send to specific token
+await notify.sendPush({
+  token: 'ExponentPushToken[xxx]',
+  title: 'Hello',
+  body: 'World',
+});
+
+// Schedule notification
+await notify.scheduleEmail({
+  to: 'user@example.com',
+  template: 'calendar-reminder',
+  data: { eventTitle: 'Meeting' },
+  scheduledFor: new Date('2024-12-20T13:45:00Z'),
+});
+```
+
+### NestJS Integration
+
+```typescript
+import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
+import { ConfigModule, ConfigService } from '@nestjs/config';
+import { NotifyModule } from '@manacore/notify-client/nestjs';
+
+@Module({
+  imports: [
+    ConfigModule.forRoot(),
+    NotifyModule.forRootAsync({
+      imports: [ConfigModule],
+      useFactory: (config: ConfigService) => ({
+        serviceUrl: config.get('MANA_NOTIFY_URL', 'http://localhost:3040'),
+        serviceKey: config.get('MANA_NOTIFY_SERVICE_KEY'),
+        appId: config.get('APP_ID'),
+      }),
+      inject: [ConfigService],
+    }),
+  ],
+})
+export class AppModule {}
+```
+
+Then inject the client:
+
+```typescript
+import { Injectable, Inject } from '@nestjs/common';
+import { NOTIFY_CLIENT, NotifyClient } from '@manacore/notify-client/nestjs';
+
+@Injectable()
+export class NotificationService {
+  constructor(@Inject(NOTIFY_CLIENT) private readonly notify: NotifyClient) {}
+
+  async sendWelcomeEmail(email: string, name: string) {
+    await this.notify.sendEmail({
+      to: email,
+      template: 'auth-welcome',
+      data: { userName: name },
+    });
+  }
+}
+```

+```
+
+## Database Schema
+
+The service uses its own schema (`notify`) in the shared ManaCore database:
+
+- `notify.notifications` - Notification records with status tracking
+- `notify.templates` - Email/push templates with Handlebars support
+- `notify.devices` - Registered push notification devices
+- `notify.preferences` - User notification preferences
+- `notify.delivery_logs` - Delivery attempt logs
+
+## Default Templates
+
+| Slug | Channel | Purpose |
+|------|---------|---------|
+| `auth-password-reset` | email | Password reset email |
+| `auth-verification` | email | Email verification |
+| `auth-welcome` | email | Welcome email |
+| `calendar-reminder` | email | Calendar event reminder |
+
+## Notification Channels
+
+### Email (Brevo SMTP)
+- Uses Nodemailer with Brevo SMTP relay
+- Supports HTML and plain text
+- Template rendering with Handlebars
+
+### Push (Expo)
+- Uses Expo Server SDK
+- Supports iOS, Android, and web
+- Batch sending with automatic chunking
+
+### Matrix
+- Direct Matrix API integration
+- Supports formatted (HTML) messages
+- For bot notifications
+
+### Webhook
+- HTTP POST/PUT to external URLs
+- Configurable headers and timeout
+- Retry with exponential backoff
+
+## Integration with Other Services
+
+### Usage from NestJS Backend
+
+```typescript
+// Direct HTTP call
+const response = await fetch('http://mana-notify:3040/api/v1/notifications/send', {
+  method: 'POST',
+  headers: {
+    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
+    'X-Service-Key': process.env.MANA_NOTIFY_SERVICE_KEY,
+  },
+  body: JSON.stringify({
+    channel: 'email',
+    appId: 'calendar',
+    template: 'calendar-reminder',
+    recipient: user.email,
+    data: { eventTitle, eventTime },
+  }),
+});
+```
+
+### Using the Client SDK
+
+```typescript
+import { NotifyClient } from '@manacore/notify-client';
+
+const notify = new NotifyClient({
+  serviceUrl: 'http://localhost:3040',
+  serviceKey: process.env.MANA_NOTIFY_SERVICE_KEY,
+  appId: 'calendar',
+});
+
+// Send email
+await notify.sendEmail({
+  to: 'user@example.com',
+  template: 'calendar-reminder',
+  data: { eventTitle: 'Meeting', eventTime: '14:00' },
+});
+
+// Send push to user
+await notify.sendPush({
+  userId: 'user-uuid',
+  title: 'Reminder',
+  body: 'Meeting in 15 minutes',
+  data: { eventId: 'xxx' },
+});
+```

+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Email not sending
+
+1. Check SMTP credentials in environment
+2. Verify SMTP host/port settings
+3. Check logs for error messages
+
+### Push notifications failing
+
+1. Verify Expo push tokens are valid
+2. Check Expo access token is set
+3. Ensure devices are registered
+
+### Redis connection issues
+
+```bash
+# Check Redis
+docker exec mana-notify-redis-dev redis-cli ping
+
+# Check queue status
+curl http://localhost:3040/health
+```
+
+## Metrics
+
+Available at `/metrics` in Prometheus format:
+
+- `mana_notify_notifications_sent_total` - Total notifications sent
+- `mana_notify_notifications_failed_total` - Total failed notifications
+- `mana_notify_emails_sent_total` - Emails sent by template
+- `mana_notify_push_sent_total` - Push notifications by platform
+- `mana_notify_notification_latency_seconds` - Processing latency
