22- Run the script without `--execute` first. Report the selected sources and planned changes.
23- Before `--execute`, obtain authorization because the script downloads and runs upstream software and writes outside the workspace.
24- Never import an existing `~/.buzz`, `~/.hermes`, relay directory, launch agent, identity, key, or configuration unless the user explicitly requests migration.
25- A clean Buzz reset must also audit `~/Library/WebKit/xyz.block.buzz.app`; its local storage can retain the active community URL after the app and Application Support directory are removed. With authorization, quit Buzz and remove that WebKit directory when the user requests a fresh configuration. Keep macOS Keychain identities unless the user explicitly asks to delete them.
26- Do not expose tokens, Nostr private keys, `.env` contents, or Hermes authentication files in output.
