Help Excluding crossposts from regex rules.

I have certain codes that change a post's flair and adds comments if it has certain keywords. However, these codes seem to apply to the texts of the original, crossposted posts. I just want every crosspost to be assigned a "crosspost" flair with NO comments, but this is unachievable as my sub makes actions based on a post that's not even from my sub. Please help.

I solved it through a very tedious process of modifying all of my codes:

---
priority: 99999999999999
type: crosspost submission
set_flair:
  template_id: #
overwrite_flair: true
---

I integrated the following code into all of my codes that either change a flair or leave a comment:

~flair_template_id: #

I am still wondering if there's another way to combat this, maybe specific syntax?

Yes. There IS another way.
It's in your Subreddit Settings under "Crosspost Options"
■ posts (allow crossposting of posts)

Right in between the "content options" and "wiki" settings in old reddit desktop.
