Description
Type of Task
Feature
User Story / Goal
As a new user, after I register, I want to receive an email with a verification link so that I can confirm I own the email address, enhancing my account's security.
Acceptance Criteria
- After a user is created, a USER_REGISTERED event is published to the message queue (e.g., RabbitMQ).
- A worker service consumes this event.
- The worker generates a unique, single-use verification token and saves it to the user's record.
- The worker calls the new Email Service to send a templated verification email to the user.
- A new API endpoint GET /api/auth/verify-email?token=... is created to validate the token and mark the user as verified.
