Research direction
First, examine the existing Hangouts notification plugin in the repository's plugins directory to understand the current integration pattern. Then, research the Google Chat API (specifically the REST endpoint for sending messages) and compare it to the Hangouts API. Update the plugin to use the new Chat API while maintaining backward compatibility. Check if there are any authentication differences.
