When provided, these residues guide pocket extraction and add a derived pocket constraint during affinity predictions. That derived constraint remains separate from any explicit pocket constraints in target.constraints. When omitted, the model auto-detects the pocket.

boltz_smarts_catalog_filter_level: optional "recommended" or "extra" or "aggressive" or "disabled"

Controls the stringency of Boltz's built-in SMARTS structural alert filtering, which removes molecules matching known problematic substructures. 'recommended' (default): applies a curated set of alerts balancing safety and hit rate. 'extra': adds additional alerts beyond the recommended set for stricter filtering. 'aggressive': applies the most comprehensive alert set — may reject viable molecules. 'disabled': turns off Boltz SMARTS filtering entirely; only custom_filters will be applied.

Accepts one of the following:

"recommended"

"extra"

"aggressive"
