I'm fine with what you have, and I can do these as a follow-up later if
it's too much trouble, but I suggest something like this:

	const char *sep = "";

		seq_buf_printf(buffer, "%s%s", sep, "auto");
		sep = ",";

(In the printf the sep is just for future expansion, though I don't
expect one.)

		seq_buf_printf(buffer, "%s%s%s", sep, enable ? "" : "!", names[i]);
		sep = ",";

	seq_buf_puts(buffer, "\n");

Drop the above.

I.e. keep track of sep while printing to avoid removing it later.
