+- `filterSellers`, `sellerKeywords`, `sellerDomains`: seller policy inputs. The defaults treat Telegram references, including `t.me` and `telegram.me` links, as seller signals alongside paid-content platforms and payment prompts.

+Seller filtering combines the candidate post with Reddit profile/about and recent activity evidence. The default policy treats Telegram names and links as seller signals alongside paid-content platforms and payment prompts.

 The system must not manufacture personal facts. Generated messages must not claim shared location or proximity, invite an in-person meeting, invent identity/history, or ignore a conversation boundary. The final outbound safety check is intentionally separate from prompt wording.
