-> **Ground truth:** `CometChatUIKitSwift ~> 5` (+ `CometChatCallsSDK ~> 5`) — Pods/SPM `.swiftinterface` + `ui-kit/ios`. **Official docs:** https://www.cometchat.com/docs/notifications/overview · **Docs MCP:** `claude mcp add --transport http cometchat-docs https://www.cometchat.com/docs/mcp` (or fetch the URL directly without MCP). Verify symbols against the installed package/source before relying on them.
+## Companion skills (read first)
+- `cometchat-ios-core` owns setup and login. This skill ADDS delivery. It is **docs-first and thin**: push depends on your Apple account, certificates and Dashboard configuration, so fetch the notifications docs via `cometchat-ios-core/references/docs-map.md` rather than trusting a baked recipe.
 
-## Purpose
+## Use this skill when
+"add push notifications", "open the right chat when a notification is tapped", "ring on an incoming call while backgrounded".
 
-This skill teaches how to set up push notifications for CometChat iOS apps, including APNs configuration, token registration, and handling incoming notifications.
+## What you must have before any code
+Push is **not** a code-only feature. All of these are prerequisites and none are things a skill can do for the user: an Apple Developer account with the Push Notifications capability, an APNs key or certificate uploaded to the **CometChat Dashboard**, and the Notifications product enabled for the app. If any are missing, say so plainly and stop — do not emit code that cannot work.
 
----
-
-## 1. Prerequisites
-
-Before setting up push notifications:
-
-1. **Apple Developer Account** — Required for APNs certificates
-2. **CometChat Dashboard Access** — To configure push notification settings
-3. **Physical iOS Device** — Push notifications don't work on simulators
-
----
-
-## 2. APNs Certificate Setup
-
-### Step 1: Create APNs Key (Recommended)
-
-1. Go to [Apple Developer Portal](https://developer.apple.com/account)
-2. Navigate to **Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles** → **Keys**
-3. Click **+** to create a new key
-4. Enter a name (e.g., "CometChat Push Key")
-5. Enable **Apple Push Notifications service (APNs)**
-6. Click **Continue** → **Register**
-7. Download the `.p8` file (you can only download it once!)
-8. Note the **Key ID** and your **Team ID**
-
-### Step 2: Configure CometChat Dashboard
-
-1. Go to [CometChat Dashboard](https://app.cometchat.com)
-2. Select your app
-3. Navigate to **Notifications** → **Push Notifications**
-4. Select **iOS** tab
-5. Upload your `.p8` file
-6. Enter your **Key ID** and **Team ID**
-7. Select the environment (Development/Production)
-8. Save the configuration
-
----
-
-## 3. Xcode Project Configuration
-
-### Enable Push Notifications Capability
-
-1. Open your project in Xcode
-2. Select your target
-3. Go to **Signing & Capabilities**
-4. Click **+ Capability**
-5. Add **Push Notifications**
-6. Add **Background Modes** and enable:
-   - Remote notifications
-   - Voice over IP (if using calls)
-
-### Update Info.plist
-
-Add the following to your `Info.plist`:
-
-```xml
-<key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
-<array>
-    <string>remote-notification</string>
-    <string>voip</string>
-</array>
-```

-## 5. VoIP Push Notifications (for Calls)
-
-### Import PushKit
-
-```swift
-import PushKit
-```
+## The shape of the integration — use `CometChatPushNotifications`, do NOT hand-roll
+The current, canonical iOS path is the **`CometChatPushNotifications`** SDK (module `CometChatPushNotificationsSwift`), the same one `cometchat-ios-v5-sdk` documents. Do **not** hand-roll `UIKitSettings.set(deviceToken:)` / `set(voipToken:)`, `PKPushRegistryDelegate` or `CXProviderDelegate` — those setters exist but are the legacy path the sample app and current docs no longer use.
 
-### Register for VoIP
+1. Request authorisation and register for remote notifications (on a real device — **the simulator does not receive APNs**).
+2. After `CometChat.init`, call `CometChatPushNotifications.shared.initialize(config:)` and set its `.delegate`. In `didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken`, forward the APNs token with `CometChatPushNotifications.shared.registerDeviceToken(_:)`. **Ordering is not your problem** — the token can arrive before login; the SDK caches it and binds it to the user automatically once you initialize and the user logs in. (There is no need to gate `didRegister…` on login, and no `set(deviceToken:)` call.)
+3. Handle the tap: read the payload, resolve the conversation, and push your chat screen — the same screen core builds. A notification that opens the app to the wrong place is the push equivalent of a dead-end affordance.
+4. **Log out unregisters.** Leaving a stale token delivers a user's messages to a device someone else may now be using — treat it as a correctness and privacy requirement, not a nicety.

-## 6. UIKitSettings with Push Tokens
-
-You can also pass tokens during initialization:
-
-```swift
-let uiKitSettings = UIKitSettings()
-    .set(appID: "YOUR_APP_ID")
-    .set(authKey: "YOUR_AUTH_KEY")
-    .set(region: "us")
-    .set(deviceToken: apnsToken)      // APNs token
-    .set(voipToken: voipToken)        // VoIP token
-    .subscribePresenceForAllUsers()
-    .build()
-
-CometChatUIKit(uiKitSettings: uiKitSettings) { result in
-    // ...
-}
-```
-

-
-## 7. Notification Service Extension
-
-For rich notifications with images and custom content:
-
-### Create Extension
-
-1. In Xcode, go to **File** → **New** → **Target**
-2. Select **Notification Service Extension**
-3. Name it (e.g., "NotificationService")
-
-### Implement Extension
-
-```swift
-// NotificationService.swift
-import UserNotifications
-
-class NotificationService: UNNotificationServiceExtension {
-    
-    var contentHandler: ((UNNotificationContent) -> Void)?
-    var bestAttemptContent: UNMutableNotificationContent?

-## 8. Badge Count Management
-
-### Update Badge Count
-
-```swift
-// Set badge count
-UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber = unreadCount
-
-// Clear badge count
-UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 0
-```
-
-### Sync with CometChat Unread Count
-
-```swift
-func updateBadgeCount() {
-    // getUnreadMessageCount's success closure receives a SINGLE [String: Any]
-    // (conversations keyed by uid/guid → count) — NOT two separate dicts.
-    CometChat.getUnreadMessageCount { unread in
-        var totalUnread = 0
-        for (_, count) in unread {

-## 9. Testing Push Notifications
-
-### Using Terminal
-
-```bash
-# Test APNs push (requires authentication)
-curl -v \
-  --header "apns-topic: com.yourapp.bundleid" \
-  --header "apns-push-type: alert" \
-  --header "authorization: bearer $JWT_TOKEN" \
-  --data '{"aps":{"alert":"Test message"}}' \
-  --http2 \
-  https://api.push.apple.com/3/device/$DEVICE_TOKEN
-```
-
-### Using CometChat Dashboard
-
-1. Go to CometChat Dashboard
-2. Navigate to **Users**
-3. Select a user
-4. Click **Send Push Notification**
-5. Enter a test message
-6. Send
-

-## Troubleshooting
-
-| Issue | Solution |
-|---|---|
-| Token not registering | Ensure device is physical, not simulator |
-| Notifications not received | Check APNs certificate in dashboard |
-| Badge not updating | Check notification permissions |
-| VoIP not working | Ensure VoIP capability is enabled |
-| Notifications delayed | Check APNs environment (dev vs prod) |

+## VoIP / calls
+Ringing while backgrounded is **also `CometChatPushNotifications`**, not a hand-rolled channel: it owns PushKit + CallKit for you (`registerForVoIPPushes()`, `presentCallScreen(for:sessionId:)`). **Never write your own `PKPushRegistryDelegate` / `CXProviderDelegate` or call `UIKitSettings.set(voipToken:)`** — the SDK owns both and a hand-rolled one fights it for the same callbacks. Full VoIP wiring lives in `cometchat-ios-v5-sdk` (§ "VoIP call notifications"); it needs an APNs **VoIP** provider in the Dashboard, the Voice-over-IP Background Mode, and a physical device.
 
-## Best Practices
+## Gotchas
+- **Simulator cannot verify this.** Delivery must be checked on a physical device; expect the automated gate to report push as blocked-external.
+- **Badge counts drift** unless you update and clear them deliberately.
+- **Sandbox vs production APNs** are different environments — a token from one will not deliver on the other.
 
-1. **Always request permission** before registering for notifications
-2. **Handle token refresh** — tokens can change
-3. **Test on real devices** — simulators don't support push
-4. **Use Notification Service Extension** for rich notifications
-5. **Implement proper deep linking** for notification taps
-6. **Clear badge count** when user opens the app
-7. **Handle both foreground and background** notifications
+## Verify it works
+On a real device: background the app, send a message from another user, see the notification, tap it and land in the right conversation. Then log out and confirm notifications stop.
