After research → action

Typical handoff:

1. Intelligence or autopsy → refine metadata via vidseeds-projects.
2. Trends/keywords → thumbnail brief via vidseeds-thumbnails.
3. Public audit → user decides positioning; no automatic publish.

Always run vidseeds_get_seed_balance before batch intelligence calls.
