Implement step 17 modules: threads/messages, notifications with automation (submission.created, idea.created, grant_call.opened), innovation test feedback, admin panel (submissions, verify, metrics, grant call status), Middleman adaptation and partnerships. Split multi-type files into one type per file and replace object-valued dictionaries with string-valued maps in data contracts (migrations 0006/0007).
Implement the idea creator and application generator: idea status workflow, social canvas card, grant call windows with 409 when closed, and an LLM-backed idea assistant with offline fallback.
Add submission CRUD with pagination and role scoping, challenge/location binding, automatic keyword extraction, a validated status workflow, and domain events for matchmaking and notifications. Create a problem record together with each submission.
