? Checklist

• I have followed every step in the contributing guide
• The PR title follows the convention.
• I ran and tested the code works

---

Testing

• Added a unit test in packages/core/test/eventFilterMatches.test.ts verifying that eventFilterMatches returns true for { user: { email: [{ $exists: false }] } } when the payload is {}, { user: null }, or { user: {} }, and returns false when { user: { email: "a@b.com" } }.
• Ran all 35 unit tests in packages/core/test/eventFilterMatches.test.ts ? all 35 pass.

---

Changelog

Normalized undefined and null payloads to {} in eventFilterMatches instead of returning false early on non-empty filters, allowing nested $exists: false leaf filters to evaluate consistently when an ancestor key is missing or null.
