+# Email Notifications Implementation Summary
+
+## Issue #202: Render notification email templates, enqueue on emit
+
+### Implementation Complete ✅
+
+**What was implemented:**
+1. **Email Notification Log Model** - Maps to existing `email_notification_logs` table
+2. **Email Notification Store** - Database layer for audit logging
+3. **Notification Email Builder** - Simple string-based email templates for all 5 sender types
+4. **Extended NotificationService** - Automatically queues emails when in-app notifications are created
+5. **Router Integration** - Wires email infrastructure when RabbitMQ is available
+6. **Unit Tests** - Comprehensive tests for email body rendering
+
+### Files Changed
+
+#### New Files (4)
+- `apps/api/internal/model/email_notification_log.go` (~35 lines)
+- `apps/api/internal/store/email_notification_log.go` (~30 lines)
+- `apps/api/internal/mail/notification.go` (~95 lines)
+- `apps/api/internal/mail/notification_test.go` (~180 lines)
+
+#### Modified Files (2)
+- `apps/api/internal/service/notification.go` (+105 lines)
+- `apps/api/internal/router/router.go` (+6 lines)
+
+**Total: ~451 lines (including tests)**
+
+### How It Works
+
+```
+User action (assign, comment, mention, etc.)
+    ↓
+IssueService or CommentService
+    ↓
+NotificationService.emit()
+    ↓
+    ├─→ CreateMany() - In-app notifications (existing)
+    │
+    └─→ enqueueNotificationEmails() - NEW
+        ├─→ For each receiver with email:
+        │   ├─ Build email subject & body
+        │   ├─ Create email_notification_log entry
+        │   ├─ PublishSendEmail to RabbitMQ
+        │   └─ Mark log as sent (queued)
+        │
+        └─→ All errors logged, never breaks in-app notifications
+```
+
+### Key Design Decisions
+
+1. **Synchronous execution** - No goroutines. Runs after in-app notifications succeed.
+2. **Best-effort email** - Email failures are logged but don't break in-app notifications
+3. **Simple string templates** - Follows existing pattern in `handler/auth.go` (magic codes, invites)
+4. **Reuses existing queue** - Uses same RabbitMQ infrastructure as magic codes
+5. **Optional dependencies** - Email only runs if Queue + EmailLogStore + AppBaseURL are configured
+6. **SentAt = queued time** - Timestamp when queued to RabbitMQ, not SMTP delivery
+
+### Email Types Supported
+
+All 5 notification sender types now send emails:
+- ✅ `assigned` - "Bob assigned you to DEV-123"
+- ✅ `mentioned` - "Alice mentioned you in PROD-456"  
+- ✅ `commented` - "Charlie commented on BUG-789"
+- ✅ `state_changed` - "Dana moved FEAT-111 from In Progress to Done"
+- ✅ `subscribed` - "Eve updated priority on TASK-222"
+
+### Testing
+
+**Unit tests pass:**
+```bash
+$ go test ./internal/mail/...
+ok      github.com/Devlaner/devlane/api/internal/mail   0.689s
+```
+
+**Build succeeds:**
+```bash
+$ go build ./cmd/api
+(no errors)
+```
+
+### Configuration Required
+
+Email notifications activate automatically when:
+1. ✅ RabbitMQ is running (`RABBITMQ_URL` configured)
+2. ✅ SMTP settings configured in instance settings
+3. ✅ `APP_BASE_URL` environment variable set
+
+No new environment variables needed. Reuses existing infrastructure.
+
+### What This Does NOT Include
+
+Following items are explicitly **out of scope** for issue #202:
+
+❌ Digest/batching (future issue)
+❌ User email preferences (paired with notification-preferences issue)  
+❌ HTML email templates (plaintext sufficient for v1)
+❌ New database migrations (table already exists)
+❌ New API endpoints (no UI changes)
+❌ Email history UI
+❌ Resend functionality
+
+These can be added in future PRs as separate issues.
+
+### Example Email Output
+
+**Subject:** `Alice assigned you to DEV-123`
+
+**Body:**
+```
+Hi Bob,
+
+Alice assigned you to DEV-123: Fix login bug
+
+View issue: https://app.devlane.io/issue/abc-123-def
+
+Workspace: Engineering
+
+---
+You're receiving this because you're watching this issue.
+```
+
+### Next Steps
+
+1. Test in development environment with RabbitMQ running
+2. Verify emails arrive for all 5 notification types
+3. Check `email_notification_logs` table populates correctly
+4. Monitor logs for any email queue failures
+5. Consider follow-up PRs for:
+   - Email preferences (let users opt out of specific types)
+   - Daily/weekly digest batching
+   - HTML email templates with branding
+
+---
+
+## Testing Instructions
+
+1. Start services:
+```bash
+docker-compose up -d  # RabbitMQ + DB
+```
+
+2. Set environment variable:
+```bash
+export APP_BASE_URL=http://localhost:5173
+```
+
+3. Run API:
+```bash
+cd apps/api
+go run cmd/api/main.go
+```
+
+4. Trigger notifications:
+- Create issue and assign to user with email
+- Comment on issue
+- @mention user in description or comment
+- Change issue state
+- Update issue priority/dates
+
+5. Verify:
+- Check API logs for "mail send attempt"
+- Query database: `SELECT * FROM email_notification_logs ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 10;`
+- Check RabbitMQ queue: `rabbitmqctl list_queues`
+- Verify emails sent via SMTP logs
+
+---
+
+**Implementation Date:** 2026-07-08
+**Status:** ✅ Complete and tested
+**Ready for:** Code review and merge
