- * Prutter — Direct Messaging routes.
- *
- * GET  /prutter                   -> inbox (list of your conversations on THIS site)
- * GET  /prutter/new?to=<username> -> start (or resume) a conversation, redirects to /prutter/:id
- * GET  /prutter/:id               -> conversation view (messages + send form)
- * POST /prutter/:id/send          -> send a message (HTMX-friendly response)
- *
- * Scoping: conversations are per-site (PrutterService.getOrCreateConversation
- * uses res.locals.site.id). Robin's quote: "Prutter = DM (per .com domain)".
- *
- * Per-site toggle: site.enable_prutter == 0 -> 404 the whole feature.
- *
- * No anonymous DMs — always requires login.
