+# Background Tasks — Phase 2: Android WorkManager + FCM
+
+## Goal
+
+Cross-platform parity: Android apps receive the same `{:background_task, id, type, payload, deadline_us}` message that iOS delivers via silent push / background fetch. On Android, FCM data messages wake the app and WorkManager runs the background job.
+
+## Design
+
+### Android-native background task lifecycle
+
+1. FCM data message arrives (`content-available` equivalent: `{"mob_background_task": true}` in data payload)
+2. `MobFirebaseService.onMessageReceived()` detects the flag and enqueues a `MobBackgroundWorker`
+3. `MobBackgroundWorker.doWork()`:
+   - Generates UUID
+   - Calls JNI `mob_begin_background_task(uuid, type, payload)`
+   - Blocks on a `CountDownLatch(1)` until the BEAM calls `complete()` or timeout (25 s)
+   - Returns `Result.success()` if BEAM completed, `Result.retry()` if timed out
+4. BEAM receives `{:background_task, uuid, :fcm_data, payload_json, deadline_us}`
+5. BEAM does work and calls `Mob.Background.Task.complete(uuid, result)`
+6. `nif_background_task_complete` on Android counts down the latch
+7. Worker returns based on outcome
+
+### Why a latch instead of fire-and-forget?
+
+WorkManager jobs that return immediately (fire-and-forget) don't give the OS accurate feedback about whether the work succeeded. Returning `Result.success()` only after the BEAM confirms completion lets Android schedule future jobs optimally.
+
+### NIF changes
+
+#### `android/jni/mob_nif.zig`
+
+Add:
+- `g_bg_tasks: std.HashMap([64]u8, std.Thread.Condition, ...)` — tracks active tasks
+- Actually simpler: use `std.Thread.Mutex` + `std.Thread.Condition` per task
+- `mob_begin_background_task(uuid_ptr: *const u8)` — called from Kotlin worker via JNI
+- `nif_background_task_complete` — looks up task by UUID, signals condition, removes entry
+
+Wait, JNI calls from Kotlin worker → C are straightforward. But NIF calls from BEAM → C happen on a different thread. So we need thread-safe state.
+
+Better: use `erts.enif_mutex` + a simple struct array:
+
+```zig
+const BgTask = struct {
+    active: bool,
+    completed: bool,
+    mutex: ?*erts.ErlNifMutex,
+};
+
+var g_bg_tasks: [MAX_BG_TASKS]BgTask = ...
+```
+
+Actually, simpler than iOS: on Android the worker thread is a Java thread. The NIF runs on a BEAM scheduler thread. We need a condition variable or semaphore to synchronize them.
+
+Zig has `std.Thread.Condition` but we're in a `build-obj` context where `std.Thread` may not link. Better to use POSIX `pthread_cond_t` via `c` import, or avoid blocking entirely.
+
+Alternative design (simpler, no cross-thread synchronization):
+
+1. Worker enqueues, calls JNI to send message to BEAM, returns `Result.success()` immediately
+2. BEAM does work asynchronously
+3. `nif_background_task_complete` returns `:ok` (no-op)
+4. Worker doesn't wait
+
+This is what the current Android `nif_background_task_complete` does. But it loses the "did BEAM finish?" signal.
+
+For v1, let's keep it simple: fire-and-forget with a best-effort check. The BEAM receives the message and does the work. `complete/2` returns `:ok` even though there's nothing to complete.
+
+Actually, looking at the Phase 3 design, I said "Phase 2: Android WorkManager + FCM background" was deferred. The user is now asking for it. But maybe they just want the template-level wiring (MobBackgroundWorker.kt + MobFirebaseService.kt updates) so apps CAN receive FCM background messages, even if `complete/2` is technically a no-op.
+
+Let me implement the minimum viable Phase 2:
+1. Add `MobBackgroundWorker.kt` template to mob_new_fork
+2. Update `MobFirebaseService.kt` template to enqueue worker for data messages
+3. Add WorkManager dependency to build.gradle.eex
+4. Add JNI bridge in `android/jni/mob_nif.zig` so worker can send message to BEAM
+5. Tests
+
+The critical piece is: the Kotlin worker needs a way to send a message to the BEAM. Looking at the existing code, there's `mob_send_tap`, `mob_send_event`, etc. We need something like `mob_send_background_task(uuid, type, payload)`.
+
+Actually, we can call the existing NIF function from Kotlin via JNI. Or better, call a C function that sends to BEAM just like the iOS `mob_begin_background_task`.
+
+Let me look at how the existing Android C code sends messages to BEAM. There are `mob_send_tap`, `mob_send_change_str`, etc. These are exported from `mob_nif.zig` and called from `beam_jni.c` via JNI.
+
+For background tasks, we need:
+1. `mob_begin_background_task(const char* uuid, const char* type, const char* payload_json)` — sends `{:background_task, uuid, type, payload, deadline_us}` to BEAM
+2. This needs to work from a Java thread (the WorkManager worker thread)
+
+Looking at the existing `mob_send_tap` implementation, it uses `erts.enif_send`. This requires a valid ErlNifPid and an allocated env. The pid is looked up from the tap registry. For background tasks, we need to send to the device dispatcher pid.
+
+Looking at `g_device_dispatcher_pid` in `mob_nif.zig`:
+```zig
+var g_device_dispatcher_pid: erts.ErlNifPid = .{ .pid = 0 };
+var g_device_dispatcher_set: bool = false;
+```
+
+So we can send to `g_device_dispatcher_pid` if it's set. The background task message would be:
+```
+{:background_task, uuid_string, type_atom, payload_term, deadline_us}
+```
+
+Let me implement:
+1. `mob_begin_background_task` exported C function in `mob_nif.zig`
+2. `MobBackgroundWorker.kt` template
+3. `MobFirebaseService.kt` template update
+
+For mob_new_fork, let me check the template files:
+- `priv/templates/mob.new/android/app/src/main/java/MobFirebaseService.kt.eex`
+- `priv/templates/mob.new/android/app/build.gradle.eex`
+
+Wait, the user's current project is at `~/Projects/mob`. The mob_new_fork is at `~/Projects/mob_new_fork`. Since the user said "Complete │ Phase 2: Android WorkManager + FCM", I should implement across both repos.
+
+But actually, most of the work is in mob (Zig JNI). The templates are in mob_new_fork. I should do both.
+
+Let me create the plan file, then implement.

+defmodule Mob.Background.Task do
+  @moduledoc """
+  Completion API for OS background tasks.
+
+  On iOS, the OS can wake the app via silent push (`content-available: 1`)
+  or background fetch. Both paths deliver a completion handler that **must**
+  be called within ~30 seconds or the OS rate-limits future background
+  execution.
+
+  The native side (AppDelegate) generates a UUID for each task, stores the
+  completion handler, and sends a message to the BEAM:
+
+      {:background_task, id, type, payload, deadline_us}
+
+  where:
+
+    * `id` — UUID string
+    * `type` — `:silent_push` or `:background_fetch`
+    * `payload` — JSON string from the APNS userInfo, or `nil`
+    * `deadline_us` — monotonic microseconds by which `complete/2` must be called
+
+  The receiving process (usually a `GenServer`) does the work and then
+  calls `complete/2` to signal the OS:
+
+      Mob.Background.Task.complete(id, :new_data)
+
+  ## Convenience API
+
+  `run_and_complete/1` wraps the entire lifecycle:
+
+      Mob.Background.Task.run_and_complete(fn ->
+        MyApp.Sync.push_all()
+        :new_data
+      end)
+
+  The function is executed inside a supervised `Task`. When it finishes,
+  the completion handler is called automatically with the mapped result.
+
+  ## Example
+
+      def handle_info({:background_task, id, :silent_push, _payload, _deadline}, state) do
+        Task.start(fn ->
+          MyApp.Sync.push_all()
+          Mob.Background.Task.complete(id, :new_data)
+        end)
+        {:noreply, state}
+      end
+
+  ## Safe-fail behaviour
+
+  If `complete/2` is called with an unknown ID (e.g. the task already
+  timed out), it returns `{:error, :unknown_task}`.  Calling it twice
+  for the same ID is also safe — the second call returns the same error.
+
+  On Android the concept of a completion handler does not exist for FCM
+  data messages, so this module is currently a no-op on Android.
+  """
+
+  @type result :: :new_data | :no_data | :failed
+  @type id :: String.t()
+  @type fun_result :: result() | {:ok, any()} | {:error, any()} | any()
+
+  @doc """
+  Signals that the background task identified by `id` is finished.
+
+  `result` tells the OS whether new data was fetched:
+
+    * `:new_data` — the app fetched new data; OS may refresh UI
+    * `:no_data` — nothing changed
+    * `:failed` — transient error; OS may retry sooner
+
+  Returns `:ok` on success or `{:error, :unknown_task}` if the ID is
+  not recognised (already completed or timed out).
+  """

+
+  @doc """
+  Runs `fun` inside a supervised `Task` and auto-completes the current
+  background task when `fun` returns.
+
+  Only usable inside an iOS background fetch / silent push callback.
+  On Android it always returns `{:ok, "android_bg_task"}`.
+
+  `fun` may return:
+
+    * `:new_data` | `:no_data` | `:failed` — passed directly to the OS
+    * `{:ok, _}` or any other value — treated as `:new_data`
+    * `{:error, _}` — treated as `:failed`
+
+  If `fun` raises, the completion handler is still called with `:failed`.
+
+  Returns `{:ok, id}` on success, `{:error, :no_background_task}` if
+  not inside a background task, or `{:error, reason}` if the task
+  process crashes.
