k d6c802ef26 fix: pre-launch hardening — HYPE price feed, KOL wallet cleanup, Telegram Trump alert, rate limiting, brittle test
Batch of the pre-launch audit campaign (BUG-01…14 plus three new features):

Pricing / TP-SL protection
- Add app/services/hl_price_feed.py: supplemental HL allMids poller for
  HL-native assets (HYPE, PURR) not listed on Binance. Pumps price_store +
  tp_sl_monitor.on_price_tick so bot trades on these assets keep full
  stop-loss / take-profit / trailing protection instead of max-hold only.
- Wire feed into main.py lifespan (startup task + graceful shutdown cancel).

Telegram
- Add format_trump_mention + PATH B in _dispatch: crypto-relevant Trump
  posts with no directional signal (relevant=True, signal=hold) now alert
  the public channel only (no per-subscriber noise).
- Rate limiter (slowapi) on the API; assorted bot/digest fixes.

KOL on-chain
- seed_kol_wallets.py: KOL_FEEDS coverage cross-check; reversibly deactivate
  orphaned wallets (handle not in KOL_FEEDS → can never produce divergence)
  so the scanner stops burning cycles on them.

Tests / misc
- Fix brittle test_macro_ahr999_uses_same_formula_as_scanner: mock now uses
  realistic ms timestamps so the in-progress-day drop fires, matching the
  fetcher's bar count (was 0.3179 vs 0.3178 off-by-one).
- Refresh stale notify_signal comment in truth_social.py.

Frontend reduce-action type fix lives in the sibling repo.

"""KOL Substack RSS ingester.
Polls each tracked KOL's Substack feed, dedupes by URL, stores raw post,
then hands off to kol_analysis.extract_kol_signal and writes the result
back onto the same row.
Substack RSS embeds the full post HTML in <content:encoded>. We strip HTML
to plain text before storage + analysis. Hayes posts are typically 50K+
chars of body — the extractor truncates internally.
Daily cadence is plenty (Hayes posts ~monthly, Substack updates feed within
minutes of publish). Call run_substack_poll() from the APScheduler.

# Curated B-tier KOL feeds. Handle is the canonical key. `source` is the
# DB column ("substack" | "podcast" | "blog"); empty defaults to "substack"
# for legacy entries. Twitter-only KOLs come in a separate ingester.
#
# When adding a new feed:
# 1. curl + grep '<item>' to confirm it returns entries.
# 2. Inspect entry summary/content length — AI extraction needs ≥300 chars
# of body per post or it just hallucinates a topic line. (Headlines-only
# feeds like Vitalik's blog need a follow-up HTML fetch, deferred.)
# 3. Add with a sensible handle + display_name.
