How Rules Work

Farm Rules

This farm only — never substitute from another farm.

Preferred — try this farm first, but OK to flex.

Any farm — best available from any partner.

Swap Behavior

Auto — we swap it in without asking. Visible in your pre-ship preview.

Ask — we email before swapping. No response in 48h = skip.

If Nothing Works

Substitute — try approved subs in order.

Skip — leave it out (we may suggest a filler).

Ask me — pause and notify you.
