  # Pre-seed (watermark): when a send_email_notification action is created — on a
  # new rule OR added to an existing one — record all currently-matching
  # transactions as already-delivered WITHOUT sending, so the rule only ever
  # emails about transactions that appear AFTER the action exists.
  #
  # Uses after_create_commit (not after_create): nested children persist before
  # the parent rule commits, and the pre-seed reads the rule's conditions, which
  # must be committed first.
  #
  # after_update_commit covers the edit flow: the action_type select is editable
  # for persisted actions (see rules_controller#rule_params), so an existing
  # action can be CHANGED to send_email_notification. Without re-seeding, the
  # next apply/sync would email every historical match. Guard on the type change
  # so we only watermark when an action actually becomes email-notify.
