+# Backend Notes (MVP Readiness)
+
+## High-Level Takeaways
+- Authentica OTP integration is implemented; Moyasar capture/refund are TODOs.
+- External calls (OTP, notifications, payment gateway) run synchronously in request/response paths, increasing latency risk.
+- Cross-app coupling (bookings ↔ notifications ↔ accounts/payments) will get harder to evolve without clearer service boundaries.
+- Phone-first auth works, but `USERNAME_FIELD` is email; align identifier strategy to avoid future auth confusion.
+
+## Near-Term Focus
+- finalize otp testing
+- work on authentication and complete it

+# ADR 0001: Synchronous External Calls For MVP
+
+## Status
+
+Accepted
+
+## Context
+
+The MVP relies on OTP delivery, booking notifications, and payment gateway calls. Introducing a task queue (Celery/RQ) would add infrastructure (Redis, workers, retries) and operational complexity that is not required for the early launch.
+
+## Decision
+
+For the MVP, OTP sends, booking notifications, and payment gateway calls run synchronously in the request/response path with strict timeouts. A task queue will be revisited when traffic grows or operational needs change.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Faster initial delivery with fewer moving parts.
+- Increased latency risk on endpoints that call external providers.
+- Payment and OTP failures are surfaced to clients immediately (correct behaviour — clients need to know).
+- Notification failures are absorbed: `notifications/services.py` catches provider errors, stores them as `FAILED` status, and never surfaces them to the client. A failed booking SMS does not cause the booking request to fail. This means notification failures require active monitoring rather than appearing in client-facing error rates.
+
+## Alternatives Considered
+
+- Celery + Redis for all external calls: rejected for MVP due to infra overhead.
+- Hybrid async for notifications only: not wrong in principle, deferred for operational simplicity. The three call types have genuinely different semantics:
+  - **Payment creation**: synchronous by design — the client needs the Moyasar redirect URL before the response returns.
+  - **OTP sends**: synchronous by design — users expect immediate confirmation that the code was sent.
+  - **Booking notifications**: fire-and-forget by nature — the booking is already committed and the client does not wait for delivery confirmation.
+  When notification latency becomes a problem (e.g. under load or with slow SMS providers), only notifications need to move off the request path. Payments and OTP sends should remain synchronous regardless.

+# ADR 0002: Moyasar As The Payment Gateway
+
+## Status
+
+Accepted
+
+## Context
+
+The platform needs a payment gateway that supports Saudi Arabia, SAR currency defaults, and local payment methods (e.g. STC Pay, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay). The backend already implements a `MoyasarGateway` integration and models `payments.Payment` with a `moyasar` provider option.
+
+## Decision
+
+Use Moyasar as the payment gateway for the MVP. Payment creation, capture, refund, and webhook reconciliation are implemented through `apps.payments.services.gateway.MoyasarGateway`.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Supports KSA-focused payment methods and SAR by default.
+- Operational dependency on Moyasar uptime and API stability.
+- Payment flows and webhooks are tied to the Moyasar API surface until a gateway abstraction is expanded.
+
+## Alternatives Considered
+
+- Other regional gateways: deferred until the MVP is validated.
+- Stripe or similar global providers: not selected for MVP due to KSA-specific coverage priorities.

+# ADR 0003: Authentica As Primary OTP Provider
+
+## Status
+
+Accepted
+
+## Context
+
+The platform requires phone-first authentication with OTP delivery for KSA. The codebase includes provider adapters (`console`, `authentica`) and Authentica is implemented for provider-managed OTP delivery (send/verify) and direct SMS messaging. A console provider exists for local development.
+
+## Decision
+
+Use Authentica as the primary OTP provider for the MVP, with `OTP_PROVIDER=authentica` in production environments. Keep `console` for local development and tests.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- OTP verification relies on Authentica APIs and credentials in production.
+- Local development remains simple with the console provider.

+# Salon MVP Roadmap And Architecture Review
+
+## Purpose / Big Picture
+
+This plan reviews the current Salon codebase (Django backend, React/Vite frontend), highlights architectural and design risks, and lays out a pragmatic roadmap to reach an MVP that aligns with **Phase 1: Core MVP Reliability** in `AGENTS.md`: phone-first auth with OTP, robust booking integrity, Moyasar payments, booking lifecycle notifications, localization foundations, and tests for critical flows.
+The roadmap assumes a KSA-focused first launch (phone auth and Riyadh timezone defaults) with a clean path to expand later.
+
+## Current State Summary
+
+### Backend (Django, DRF)
+
+- **Project**: `salon_api` in `[backend/salon_api](backend/salon_api)`
+  - `settings.py` configures `AUTH_USER_MODEL = "accounts.User"`, DRF + SimpleJWT, KSA locale defaults, and custom settings for OTP, notifications, and payments.
+  - URLs route to app-level APIs at `/api/auth/`, `/api/salons/`, `/api/bookings/`, `/api/payments/`.
+- **Auth & Accounts** (`[backend/apps/accounts](backend/apps/accounts)`)
+  - Custom `User` model with phone-first capabilities (`phone_number`, `is_phone_verified`, `preferred_language`, `role`).
+  - Phone normalization services tuned for KSA numbers (`[backend/apps/accounts/services/phone.py](backend/apps/accounts/services/phone.py)`).
+  - OTP domain + service layer with rate limits, cooldowns, expiry, and hashed codes (`[backend/apps/accounts/services/otp.py](backend/apps/accounts/services/otp.py)`).
+  - Phone-first auth endpoints that issue JWT tokens on successful OTP verification, plus basic email/password registration.
+  - Social login endpoint is a placeholder that always returns 501.
+- **Salons & Catalog** (`[backend/apps/salons](backend/apps/salons)`)
+  - Models for `Salon`, `Service`, `StaffProfile`, `StaffAvailability`, `Review`, `SalonPhoto`.
+  - Read-only APIs for salon search, services, staff, and reviews.
+- **Bookings** (`[backend/apps/bookings](backend/apps/bookings)`)
+  - `Booking` model ties together salon, service, staff, customer, time window, price, and status.
+  - `validate_booking_request` in `[backend/apps/bookings/services.py](backend/apps/bookings/services.py)` enforces staff membership, duration matching, availability windows, and overlap prevention for pending/confirmed bookings.
+  - `BookingViewSet` in `[backend/apps/bookings/views.py](backend/apps/bookings/views.py)` applies role-based access and hooks into notifications on create and relevant status changes.
+- **Payments (Moyasar)** (`[backend/apps/payments](backend/apps/payments)`)
+  - `Payment` model tracks provider, status (fine-grained transitions), amount, idempotency key, external ID, payload, and timestamps.
+  - `MoyasarGateway` in `[backend/apps/payments/services/gateway.py](backend/apps/payments/services/gateway.py)` can create payments via HTTP but has `capture_payment`/`refund_payment` as TODOs.
+  - `create_payment_for_booking` in `[backend/apps/payments/services/payments.py](backend/apps/payments/services/payments.py)` enforces provider choice (Moyasar only), idempotency, and maps webhook events into internal statuses.
+  - Webhook view in `[backend/apps/payments/views.py](backend/apps/payments/views.py)` authenticates via shared secret and applies provider events idempotently.
+- **Notifications** (`[backend/apps/notifications](backend/apps/notifications)`)
+  - `Notification` model records booking-related notifications and enforces uniqueness per booking/recipient/event/channel.
+  - Services in `[backend/apps/notifications/services.py](backend/apps/notifications/services.py)` reuse OTP providers to send SMS/WhatsApp messages for booking created/confirmed/cancelled events, with localization via `preferred_language`.
+  - Booking views call `notify_booking_lifecycle` / `notify_on_status_change` to trigger notifications for customers and staff.
+- **Testing**
+  - Solid tests around:
+    - Phone normalization, OTP rate limiting, and phone auth flows (`[backend/apps/accounts/tests](backend/apps/accounts/tests)`).
+    - Booking integrity and overlap rules (`[backend/apps/bookings/tests](backend/apps/bookings/tests)`).
+    - Payment idempotency and Moyasar webhook handling (`[backend/apps/payments/tests](backend/apps/payments/tests)`).
+    - Booking notifications on create/status change (`[backend/apps/notifications/tests](backend/apps/notifications/tests)`).
+  - `docs/risks.md` explicitly tracks several known gaps around auth, booking, payments, data/UX, and ops.
+
+### Frontend (React, Vite)
+
+- **Structure**
+  - Vite React app at `[frontend](frontend)` with entry in `[frontend/src/main.jsx](frontend/src/main.jsx)` and single top-level component in `[frontend/src/App.jsx](frontend/src/App.jsx)`.
+  - No `react-router` or multi-page routing; the entire experience is one composed screen.
+- **Current Features**
+  - **Salon search**
+    - Text search field calling `/salons/?q=<query>` via a small API client in `[frontend/src/api/client.js](frontend/src/api/client.js)`.
+    - Renders responsive list of salons with rating, city, and phone.
+  - **Localization/i18n**
+    - `react-i18next` setup in `[frontend/src/i18n/index.js](frontend/src/i18n/index.js)` with `en` and `ar-sa` translations.
+    - Locale preference stored in `localStorage`; applies `lang` and `dir` on the document.
+  - **Payments beta**
+    - A form in `App.jsx` that sends payment creation requests to `/api/payments/` using the Moyasar-style payload, with configurable `booking_id`, source type, token, and callback URL.
+    - Optionally includes a Bearer token from a manually-entered access token field.
+    - On success, can redirect to `redirect_url` and shows the raw JSON response.
+- **State & Tests**
+  - All state is local to `App.jsx` via `useState`/`useEffect`; there is no centralized state management or domain hooks yet.
+  - A single test file `[frontend/src/App.test.jsx](frontend/src/App.test.jsx)` covers hero copy and locale/RTL behavior, but not search or payments.
+
+## Glaring Design And Architectural Issues
+
+### Backend Risks
+
+- **Incomplete provider implementations for production-critical flows**
+  - Authentica is the only OTP/notification provider; ensure it is fully configured and exercised in production-like environments.
+  - `MoyasarGateway` lacks `capture_payment` and `refund_payment` implementations, limiting payment lifecycle coverage.
+  - **Risk**: Code reads “production ready” at the API level, but the underlying integrations are not, which could cause outages if deployed naively.
+- **Tight coupling between OTP and notifications**
+  - Notification services import the OTP provider mapping and default `NOTIFICATION_PROVIDER` to `OTP_PROVIDER`, binding booking notifications to auth configuration.
+  - **Risk**: Changing OTP providers or adding a second channel for marketing/ops notifications will be harder and could have unintended side effects.
+- **Synchronous IO-heavy work in request/response path**
+  - OTP sends, booking notifications, and payment gateway calls all occur synchronously inside view methods (`perform_create`, `create`, etc.).
+  - **Risk**: Slow or flaky providers will degrade API latency and user experience; retries and backoff are hard to implement without background jobs.
+- **Cross-app domain coupling without a clear orchestration layer**
+  - `apps.bookings` depends on salons and notifications; notifications depend on accounts (OTP providers) and bookings; payments depend on bookings.
+  - **Risk**: As you add more lifecycle rules (e.g., auto-confirm booking on payment, send reminders, handle refunds), the spaghetti of cross-imports will grow unless you introduce clearer service boundaries.
+- **Auth model vs login patterns**
+  - `User.USERNAME_FIELD` is email, while phone-based JWT issuance happens via custom endpoints.
+  - **Risk**: This split can confuse clients and admin tooling and may complicate future flows like social login or SSO unless you standardize on an identifier strategy.
+- **Docs drift around ExecPlans**
+  - `AGENTS.md` references `docs/execplans/payments-moyasar.md` as the active plan, while `PLANS.md` names `docs/execplans/booking-notifications.md`.
+  - **Risk**: Contributors may follow different “active” plans, causing architectural inconsistency.
+
+### Frontend Risks
+
+- **Monolithic `App` component with no routing**
+  - `App.jsx` mixes hero/search, salon listing, payments, and locale controls.
+  - There is no `react-router` or notion of separate flows (auth, booking, profile, payments).
+  - **Risk**: Extending to full MVP flows (auth, booking, history, management) will quickly become unmanageable without a routing/page system and domain separation.
+- **Domain logic embedded in UI components**
+  - API payload construction, validation rules (e.g. for source types), and error handling are implemented directly in `App.jsx` rather than reusable hooks or service modules.
+  - **Risk**: Code reuse, testing, and evolution (e.g., adding booking pages or admin consoles) will be painful.
+- **Minimal test coverage for critical flows**
+  - Only i18n and hero copy are tested; search behavior, API integration, and payments are untested.
+  - **Risk**: Regressions in search, booking, and payments UX will slip through as MVP grows.
+- **Styling & layout fragility**
+  - `frontend/src/styles.css` uses `::root` instead of `:root`, which likely breaks intended global CSS variables or base styles.
+  - Global CSS is tightly bound to the monolithic `App` layout.
+  - **Risk**: Visual regressions and layout churn when introducing additional pages or components.
+- **Ad hoc auth token handling**
+  - The “access token” is a free-form text field that gets persisted as `auth_token` in `localStorage` and injected into payment requests.
+  - **Risk**: This is a placeholder pattern that does not scale to full auth (refresh tokens, logout, token rotation) and will need to be replaced.
+
+### Cross-Cutting Risks
+
+- **Lack of async/background processing**
+  - No Celery/RQ or similar job queue; all side effects are synchronous.
+  - **Risk**: Scaling SMS/WhatsApp notifications, email, and payment webhook fan-out will be difficult.
+- **Observability and admin tooling gaps**
+  - Errors for payments and notifications are recorded in model metadata but not clearly surfaced in logs, dashboards, or admin views.
+  - **Risk**: Operational debugging during MVP rollout will be slower and more error-prone.
+- **Internationalization strategy vs future markets**
+  - Phone normalization and defaults are tailored to KSA, which is correct for MVP, but `docs/risks.md` already notes the need to broaden later.
+  - **Risk**: Without clear boundaries between KSA-specific logic and generic logic, future expansion may require invasive changes.
+
+## MVP Roadmap (Aligned To Phase 1)
+
+This roadmap assumes “MVP” is equivalent to **Phase 1: Core MVP Reliability** in `AGENTS.md`, with a thin but robust frontend on top.
+
+### Phase 0 – Architecture & Production Readiness Hardening
+
+- **Finalize critical provider implementations**
+  - Ensure Authentica OTP/SMS is fully configured and validated end-to-end behind the provider abstraction in `[backend/apps/accounts/services/otp.py](backend/apps/accounts/services/otp.py)`, and wired into `[backend/apps/notifications/services.py](backend/apps/notifications/services.py)`.
+  - Implement or deliberately fence off `capture_payment` and `refund_payment` in `[backend/apps/payments/services/gateway.py](backend/apps/payments/services/gateway.py)` so that the MVP either fully supports or explicitly does not support partial captures/refunds.
+- **Clarify and document boundaries**
+  - Add a short architecture section in `README`/docs describing how `accounts`, `salons`, `bookings`, `payments`, and `notifications` interact, and what each service is responsible for.
+  - Resolve the ExecPlan drift by making `AGENTS.md` and `PLANS.md` agree on the current active plan.
+- **Introduce minimal async infrastructure (optional but recommended)**
+  - Decide whether MVP will ship with a task queue (e.g., Celery with Redis) or keep everything synchronous for the initial launch.
+  - If yes, introduce a thin task layer for OTP sends and booking notifications while preserving current APIs; if not, at least add clear timeouts/logging to external calls.
+- **Frontend scaffolding for growth**
+  - Introduce `react-router` and refactor `App.jsx` into route-based pages (e.g., `HomePage`, `BookPage`, `PaymentPage`, `ProfilePage`), with shared layout and navigation.
+  - Extract salon search, payment form, and locale controls into dedicated components and hooks.
+
+### Phase 1 – Core MVP Features (Backend + Frontend)
+
+- **Phone-first auth UX**
+  - Backend: reuse existing phone auth endpoints; ensure error messages and rate-limit responses are predictable and localized.
+  - Frontend:
+    - Build OTP-based login/registration screens that drive `/api/auth/phone/request/` and `/api/auth/phone/verify/`.
+    - Introduce an auth context (or similar) to store access/refresh tokens, current user profile, and handle logout.
+    - Defer social login beyond MVP, but keep API surface ready for it.
+- **Booking search and creation**
+  - Backend is largely ready (booking validation and role-based access); review booking serializers in `[backend/apps/bookings/serializers.py](backend/apps/bookings/serializers.py)` to ensure they expose all fields needed for frontend booking forms.
+  - Frontend:
+    - Build a **booking flow**: pick a salon → choose service → select staff (optional) → select date/time slot (based on availability endpoints) → confirm booking.
+    - Add a “My bookings” page showing upcoming and past bookings, tied into the existing `/api/bookings/` endpoints.
+- **Payments via Moyasar**
+  - Backend: confirm `create_payment_for_booking` contracts (inputs/outputs) are stable and documented.
+  - Frontend:
+    - Evolve the payments beta UI into a **post-booking payment step** that starts from a selected booking and guides the user into Moyasar’s hosted flow, then shows a status page.
+    - Handle callback/return from Moyasar (even if via manual redirect URL in MVP) and surface payment success/failure to the user.
+- **Booking lifecycle notifications**
+  - Backend already sends notifications on booking create and status changes; align messaging templates with product UX and ensure localization strings exist.
+  - Frontend: surface notification results implicitly via booking status changes and explicit messages on the booking details page.
+- **Localization foundations**
+  - Backend: ensure `UserLocaleMiddleware` and translation strings cover all user-visible errors in auth, bookings, payments, and notifications.
+  - Frontend: expand `en/ar-sa` translations to cover auth, booking, and payment flows; verify RTL layouts on the new screens.
+- **Tests for critical flows**
+  - Backend: extend tests where needed to cover new booking/payment edge cases (e.g., tying booking status to payment status if/when introduced).
+  - Frontend: add Vitest tests for:
+    - Phone auth screen flows (request/verify success + errors).
+    - Booking flow (form validation, happy path, displaying server-side errors).
+    - Payment initiation from an existing booking.
+
+### Phase 2 – Manager Ops Lite (Post-MVP, partially covered now)
+
+- **Salon and staff management UI**
+  - Use existing salon and staff models to build basic management pages for salon owners/managers (create/update services, staff, availability).
+- **Calendar views and rescheduling**
+  - Provide calendar views for staff/managers to view daily/weekly bookings and reschedule or cancel within defined rules.
+- **Reviews and ratings**
+  - Implement review submission and rating recalculation on the backend, with corresponding frontend components.
+- **Reporting basics**
+  - Lightweight reports for managers (upcoming bookings, simple revenue summaries based on payment status) using existing payments data.
+
+### Phase 3 – Scale & Compliance (Later)
+
+- **Audit logging** for admin actions and booking/payment state changes.
+- **PDPL/GDPR retention policies** and data export tooling.
+- **Observability**: structured logging, metrics, and basic dashboards for auth failures, OTP send failures, payment errors, and notification outcomes.

+
+## Validation And Acceptance For This Plan
+
+- The roadmap is accepted when:
+  - It clearly maps current backend and frontend capabilities to the Phase 1 MVP goals in `AGENTS.md`.
+  - It identifies the highest-risk design/architecture issues that could impede MVP reliability or future evolution.
+  - It provides a phased, concrete sequence of work packages that can be implemented via ExecPlans (e.g., booking notifications, Moyasar payments, phone auth UX).
+- Each major feature area (auth, bookings, payments, notifications, localization, tests) should have or adopt an ExecPlan under `docs/execplans/` in line with `PLANS.md` before implementation begins.

+# Documentation Practices
+
+These standards aim to keep documentation reliable as the codebase grows.
+
+## Principles
+
+- Single source of truth: one canonical doc per topic; link instead of duplicating.
+- Proximity: keep docs close to the code they describe when possible.
+- Freshness: update docs in the same PR as the code change.
+- Observable behavior: describe what someone can see or run to validate the behavior.
+
+## Required Docs By Area
+
+- Architecture and major decisions: `docs/architecture.md` and `docs/adr/`.
+- Feature delivery plans: `docs/execplans/` (required by `PLANS.md`).
+- Operational procedures: `docs/runbooks/`.
+- Risks and gaps: `docs/risks.md`.
+
+## When To Write An ADR
+
+Use an ADR for any decision that is cross-cutting or hard to reverse, including:
+
+- External providers or payment/auth strategy changes.
+- Async vs synchronous execution decisions.
+- Data model changes that affect multiple apps or services.
+
+ADRs live in `docs/adr/` and use the template in `docs/templates/adr.md`.
+
+## Runbook Expectations
+
+Every production-impacting flow should have a runbook that covers:
+
+- Symptoms and impact.
+- Detection and quick checks.
+- Safe remediation steps.
+- Rollback or escalation path.
+
+Use the template in `docs/templates/runbook.md`.
+
+## Writing Style
+
+- Be explicit: include exact commands, paths, and expected output where useful.
+- Keep sections short and focused.
+- Avoid unstated assumptions; if a step needs a specific directory, say so.
+
+## Review Checklist
+
+- Docs updated or explicitly confirmed unnecessary.
+- New runbook added when operational behavior changes.
+- ADR added for new cross-cutting decisions.
+- `docs/risks.md` updated for meaningful gaps added or closed.

+# Booking Lifecycle Notifications (SMS/WhatsApp)
+
+This ExecPlan is a living document. The sections `Progress`, `Surprises & Discoveries`, `Decision Log`, and `Outcomes & Retrospective` must be kept up to date as work proceeds.
+
+The requirements for ExecPlans live in `PLANS.md` at the repository root. This document must be maintained in accordance with that file.
+
+## Purpose / Big Picture
+
+After this change, a booking will automatically notify the customer and the assigned staff member when it is created, confirmed, or cancelled. You can see it working by creating a booking and observing two notification records (customer + staff), then changing the booking status to confirmed or cancelled and seeing two more notification records for that event. In the console provider, the messages are logged, giving an immediate, user-visible trace of the booking lifecycle.
+
+## Progress
+
+- [x] (2026-02-28 17:05Z) Created ExecPlan for booking lifecycle notifications and reviewed bookings + notifications gaps.
+- [x] (2026-02-28 17:30Z) Implemented notifications app with audit-friendly model, providers, and booking message templates.
+- [x] (2026-02-28 17:40Z) Connected booking create/update flows to notification dispatch with idempotent event handling.
+- [x] (2026-02-28 17:55Z) Allowed booking status updates with role checks to enable confirmation/cancellation.
+- [x] (2026-02-28 18:05Z) Added tests for booking notifications (create, status change, no duplicate sends).
+- [x] (2026-02-28 18:10Z) Updated `docs/risks.md` and validated tests (`python3 -m pytest`).
+
+## Surprises & Discoveries
+
+- Observation: Booking status updates were blocked because `status` was read-only on the default booking serializer.
+  Evidence: `PATCH /api/bookings/<id>` returned HTTP 400 when attempting to confirm.
+
+## Decision Log
+
+- Decision: Store every booking notification in a dedicated `Notification` model for auditability, even when skipped.
+  Rationale: Lifecycle messages are user-facing and must be traceable for support and compliance.
+  Date/Author: 2026-02-28, Codex
+- Decision: Reuse existing OTP provider adapters for SMS/WhatsApp delivery, with a new `NOTIFICATION_PROVIDER` setting.
+  Rationale: Avoid duplicate integration code while still allowing independent provider configuration.
+  Date/Author: 2026-02-28, Codex
+- Decision: Default to SMS for booking notifications and use the recipient’s preferred language when formatting messages.
+  Rationale: SMS is the most reliable baseline in KSA, and language preference is already captured on the user.
+  Date/Author: 2026-02-28, Codex
+- Decision: Allow booking status changes via `BookingSerializer` with role-based validation.
+  Rationale: Confirmation/cancellation must be reachable through the existing API, but should still respect basic role boundaries.
+  Date/Author: 2026-02-28, Codex
+
+## Outcomes & Retrospective
+
+Booking lifecycle notifications are now implemented with audit-friendly records and idempotent sending. Booking creation and status changes (confirmed/cancelled) trigger SMS/WhatsApp notifications for both customer and staff, and role-based validation now governs status updates. Provider adapters remain scaffolds, so production delivery still requires real SMS/WhatsApp wiring.
+
+## Context and Orientation
+
+Booking creation and updates are handled in `backend/apps/bookings/views.py` via a DRF `ModelViewSet`. The booking model is in `backend/apps/bookings/models.py`, with `status` indicating lifecycle state. There is currently no notification system beyond OTP scaffolding in `backend/apps/accounts/services/otp.py`. This plan adds a new Django app at `backend/apps/notifications/` to store notification records, format booking lifecycle messages, and dispatch them via SMS or WhatsApp providers.
+
+A “notification” in this repository means a user-facing message (SMS or WhatsApp) that is stored for auditability in a `Notification` database row. A “lifecycle event” is a booking change that should inform the customer and staff: booking created, confirmed, or cancelled.
+
+## Plan of Work
+
+First, create a `notifications` Django app with models and admin registration. Define `Notification`, `NotificationEvent`, `NotificationStatus`, and `NotificationChannel` in `backend/apps/notifications/models.py`. The model must capture booking, recipient, phone number, event, channel, status, provider, message, and send timestamps, and it must be idempotent by preventing duplicates for the same booking + recipient + event + channel. Register the model in `backend/apps/notifications/admin.py` and add `apps.notifications` to `INSTALLED_APPS` in `backend/salon_api/settings.py`.
+
+Next, implement notification dispatch in `backend/apps/notifications/services.py`. Reuse OTP provider adapters from `apps.accounts.services.otp` with a new `NOTIFICATION_PROVIDER` setting (default to `OTP_PROVIDER`). Add a `NOTIFICATION_DEFAULT_CHANNEL` setting (default `sms`). Implement `send_booking_notification(booking, recipient, event)` to build localized message text using the recipient’s preferred language, send via the provider, and update the notification status. Implement `notify_booking_lifecycle(booking, event)` for initial sends and `notify_on_status_change(booking, previous_status)` to trigger only on status transitions. If the recipient lacks a phone number, record the notification as `skipped` with a reason.
+
+Then, wire booking lifecycle events in `backend/apps/bookings/views.py`. On `perform_create`, call `notify_booking_lifecycle(..., booking_created)` so both customer and staff receive a message. On `perform_update`, compare the previous status to the new status and call `notify_on_status_change` for confirmed or cancelled transitions. Avoid sending notifications if the status does not change.
+
+Finally, add tests in `backend/apps/notifications/tests/test_booking_notifications.py`. Cover booking creation (two notifications), status change to confirmed (two notifications), and a repeat status update that should not create duplicates. Ensure tests use phone numbers on users to avoid skipped notifications. Update `docs/risks.md` to mark “No notifications (email/SMS) beyond OTP scaffolding” as addressed once tests pass.
+
+## Concrete Steps
+
+Run these commands from the repository root (`/home/m7md/kshkool/Salon`).
+
+1. Add notifications app code and migrations.
+    - Create `backend/apps/notifications/` with `apps.py`, `models.py`, `services.py`, `admin.py`, and a migration `0001_initial.py`.
+    - Update `backend/salon_api/settings.py` to include `apps.notifications` and notification settings.
+
+2. Wire booking lifecycle events.
+    - Update `backend/apps/bookings/views.py` to call notification services on create and status changes.
+
+3. Add tests.
+    - Create `backend/apps/notifications/tests/test_booking_notifications.py`.
+
+4. Run backend tests.
+    - From `backend/` with the venv active:
+        python3 -m pytest
+
+## Validation and Acceptance
+
+- Creating a booking returns HTTP 201 and creates two notification records (customer + staff) with event `booking_created`.
+- Updating a booking’s status to `confirmed` creates two notification records with event `booking_confirmed`.
+- Repeating the same status update does not create duplicate notifications (records remain at two for that event).
+- `python3 -m pytest` passes, and the new tests fail before the change and pass after.
+
+## Idempotence and Recovery
+
+Notification creation is idempotent by a uniqueness constraint on booking + recipient + event + channel. Re-running the send logic will update a pending or failed notification rather than creating duplicates. If a migration needs to be reverted, use standard Django migration rollback and re-apply. If a notification provider is misconfigured, notifications will be marked failed and can be retried after fixing settings.
+
+## Artifacts and Notes
+
+Expected console-provider log example when creating a booking:
+
+    INFO OTP SMS to 0500000002: Your booking request is received for Haircut at Main Salon on 2026-03-01 10:00.
+    INFO OTP SMS to 0500000003: Your booking request is received for Haircut at Main Salon on 2026-03-01 10:00.
+
+## Interfaces and Dependencies
+
+- `backend/apps/notifications/models.py` must define `Notification`, `NotificationEvent`, `NotificationStatus`, `NotificationChannel`.
+- `backend/apps/notifications/services.py` must expose `send_booking_notification`, `notify_booking_lifecycle`, and `notify_on_status_change`.
+- `backend/apps/bookings/views.py` must call notification services in `perform_create` and `perform_update`.
+- `backend/salon_api/settings.py` must define `NOTIFICATION_PROVIDER` and `NOTIFICATION_DEFAULT_CHANNEL` settings.
+
+Plan Maintenance Note: Created on 2026-02-28 to implement booking lifecycle notifications as the next Phase 1 reliability milestone.
+Plan Maintenance Note (Update): Marked milestones complete, recorded the booking status update discovery, and documented role-based status validation after implementing notifications and tests on 2026-02-28.

 ## Security And Auth
 - Phone normalization is KSA-focused and minimal; broaden for multi-country use.
 - OTP protections are basic; add device fingerprinting and IP throttling if needed.
-- OTP provider adapters (Twilio/Unifonic) are scaffolds only; no real SMS/WhatsApp delivery yet.
+- Authentica OTP provider is implemented (SMS + WhatsApp via Authentica OTP).
 - Social login is a placeholder.
-- USERNAME_FIELD is still `email` while email can be null; verify admin/login flows.
+- `USERNAME_FIELD` is now `"phone_number"`; `REQUIRED_FIELDS = []`; `create_superuser` accepts `phone_number`. Admin and `createsuperuser` work correctly for phone-only users.
 
 ## Booking Integrity
 - Availability checks and overlap prevention are now enforced for staff bookings.
+- **Race condition — fixed:** `BookingCreateSerializer.create()` now locks the staff row with `select_for_update()` inside `transaction.atomic()` and re-runs the overlap check before inserting. Concurrent requests for the same staff slot are serialized at the DB level. Requires PostgreSQL in production (SQLite ignores `FOR UPDATE` but still serializes writes).
 - No timezone handling or business hours enforcement.
 - No cancellation rules or refund logic.
 
 ## Payments
 - Moyasar payment creation, webhook reconciliation, and idempotency are implemented.
-- Refund/capture operations are not implemented yet if required.
+- Moyasar capture and refund are implemented in the gateway; API endpoints for admin-initiated capture/refund can be added when needed.
 
 ## Data And UX
 - Ratings are not recalculated from reviews.
 - No image upload or storage strategy for photos.
-- No notifications (email/SMS) beyond OTP scaffolding.
+- Booking lifecycle notifications are implemented; Authentica can deliver SMS when NOTIFICATION_PROVIDER=authentica.
 - Localization foundations are in progress; full Arabic translation coverage and RTL QA are still pending.

+# Runbook: Auth OTP Failures
+
+## Summary
+
+Guide for diagnosing and mitigating OTP send or verify failures in phone-first authentication.
+
+## Symptoms
+
+- Users report not receiving OTP codes.
+- `/api/auth/otp/request/` or `/api/auth/phone/request/` returns HTTP 500 or rate-limit errors.
+- `/api/auth/otp/verify/` or `/api/auth/phone/verify/` returns invalid or expired OTP errors unexpectedly.
+
+## Impact
+
+- Users cannot sign in or complete phone verification.
+- Booking and payment flows are blocked when auth is required.
+
+## Quick Checks
+
+- Confirm the provider configured in `backend/salon_api/settings.py` via `OTP_PROVIDER`.
+- Check recent application logs for OTP send errors.
+- Verify provider credentials are present in `backend/.env` for the active provider.
+
+## Mitigation Steps
+
+- If provider credentials are missing or invalid, fix the environment variables and restart the API process.
+- If the provider is down, temporarily switch to `OTP_PROVIDER=console` for non-production environments and notify support.
+- If rate limits are triggered, validate `OTP_MAX_PER_WINDOW`, `OTP_WINDOW_MINUTES`, and `OTP_RESEND_COOLDOWN_SECONDS` values and confirm client behavior is not retrying aggressively.
+- If verification is failing, confirm server time is correct and `OTP_EXPIRY_MINUTES` is appropriate.
+
+## Rollback / Escalation
+
+- Roll back recent auth/OTP changes if the failure coincides with a deployment.
+- Escalate to the provider (Authentica) with request IDs and timestamps if external API errors persist.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Authentica is the primary OTP provider for MVP; console provider is for local development.
+- OTP send/verify logic lives in `backend/apps/accounts/services/otp.py`.

+# Runbook: Booking Failures
+
+## Summary
+
+Guide for diagnosing booking creation or status update failures (availability, overlap prevention, or validation errors).
+
+## Symptoms
+
+- `POST /api/bookings/` returns HTTP 400 or 500.
+- `PATCH /api/bookings/<id>/` fails when confirming or cancelling.
+- Users report bookings not appearing or incorrect status.
+
+## Impact
+
+- Customers cannot place bookings.
+- Staff schedules become inconsistent.
+- Notification and payment flows may not trigger.
+
+## Quick Checks
+
+- Confirm the request payload includes a valid `service`, `staff`, and scheduled time.
+- Check server logs for booking validation errors or integrity exceptions.
+- Verify that staff availability and overlap prevention rules are behaving as expected.
+
+## Mitigation Steps
+
+- Reproduce with a known test user and staff member to isolate data issues.
+- If overlap rules are too strict, review booking validation logic and confirm time zone assumptions.
+- If status updates are blocked, verify role checks and serializer permissions in `backend/apps/bookings/`.
+- If notifications are expected but missing, confirm `NOTIFICATION_PROVIDER` configuration and notification records.
+
+## Rollback / Escalation
+
+- Roll back recent booking-related changes if failures started after a deployment.
+- Escalate to engineering with the booking ID, user ID, and timestamps.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Booking validation and status transitions live in `backend/apps/bookings/`.
+- Notifications for booking lifecycle are handled in `backend/apps/notifications/`.

+# Frontend Notes (MVP Readiness)
+
+## High-Level Takeaways
+- `App.jsx` is monolithic and mixes search, payments, and locale controls; no routing exists yet.
+- Domain logic (API payloads, validation, error handling) lives in UI components instead of hooks/services.
+- Tests only cover hero copy and RTL behavior; search and payment flows are untested.
+- Global styles are fragile (likely `::root` typo instead of `:root`).
+- Auth token handling is ad hoc and should be replaced with a proper auth flow/context.
+
+## Near-Term Focus
+- Introduce routing and split into pages (home/search, auth, booking, payment, profile).
+- Extract API logic into hooks/services to make testing and reuse easier.
+- Add Vitest coverage for search, booking, and payment flows.
+- Fix global CSS root selector and stabilize base layout styles.
