Research direction

The payload provides a proposed PublishMercureUpdatesListener with handleSaved(), handleDeleted(), and postFlush() entry points, but names no repository files or tests. Start by locating the existing Mercure integration and Laravel event wiring; the issue does not define acceptance criteria or what completion should look like.
