+- The agent only responds in groups when **mentioned** (not to every message)
+- **Financial tools are blocked** in group context — no token transfers, payment responses, or faucet top-ups from group messages
+- The agent **notifies the owner via DM** when it joins, leaves, or is kicked from a group
