Notifications Is a Platform Module Beside Communications

Context

Applications need a shared way to announce staff changes without rebuilding delivery for each producer.

Decision

Platform hosts staff Notifications alongside Communications so shared identity and responsibility data can be read in process.

Alternatives Considered

A separate deployment would add network dependencies and lifecycle administration around a capability every application needs. Independent producer sending would duplicate recipient selection, content, deduplication and outcome history.

Consequences

Platform can resolve accounts, authority and responsibility holders without a cross-service request. External producers use committed queue entries and invocation capabilities to reach shared delivery. One corpus module describes two implementation service modules and one responsibility boundary.
