useWebSocket defaults to port 8000 while the backend runs on 6003 #1627
Description
Problem
hooks/useWebSocket.ts connects to process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_WS_URL || 'http://localhost:8000', but the API (and its socket.io gateway) listens on 6003 by default. Without an undocumented env var the hook fails to connect, and the hook is not used by any page, so the real-time pipeline has never run end to end.
Proposed change
Derive the default from NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL's origin, pass the access token in the handshake (the gateway requires auth), and subscribe to the notification events in a provider so queries invalidate on server events.
Acceptance criteria
- A new notification appears without a page refresh against a local backend.
