A bot's powers came from bots.kind alone, so only the coordinator could
hand work to other bots. bot_types now works like user_types: a row with
no workspace holds everywhere (the coordinator), one with a workspace
only there (a workspace admin), and no row is a worker. bots.kind stays
the legacy marker of the one coordinator for who sees it.
The matrices in src/dict/bot-types-dict.ts say what each type may do,
whom it may direct and who grants it, read by one generic interpreter
(rbac/type-assignment.ts) that userTypeAssignment now wraps too. Every
run reads its powers once (grabBotRunPowers) and the chat tools, task
runs and task tools gate on them instead of kind; a run's powers are its
type's and its user's together.
In the workspace it leads, an admin hands tasks to the workers there
(results relayed back to it), sets their instructions, adds tasks to
their lists and keeps the workspace's context when its user may. Super
admins and admins grant it from the workspace's settings or the chat
header's menu, and the coordinator with set_bot_type. Admins are marked
with a filled green shield beside their name across the workspace, kept
live by pushBotUpdated's admin_workspace_ids.

Bots and workspaces each keep a list of work tracked until it's done, and
the bots move it along themselves as they work.
- tasks (one collection per bot or per workspace), task_notes (the
progress log) and task_media (a deliverable or a reference file, its
bytes a private media row served at /media/private/<id>)
- statuses todo/doing/blocked/done/cancelled, with blocked_reason while
only the user can unblock it
- visibility as SQL in src/utils/task-access: a user's own bots and
workspaces, a run's own list plus its workspaces, everything for the
coordinator; every tool and endpoint resolves through it
- list_tasks, create_task and update_task on every run, so a chat reply,
a task and a routine all read the list, log progress and file what they
produced
- TasksNote on every run and TaskReminderNote in chat, so a greeting or a
proposed next step brings pending work up in one measured line
- tasks group on the workspace dashboard and a tasks modal in the
conversation header, sharing one form, row and detail panel
- a bot's or workspace's own chat uploads are read before the delete so
none are stranded; bot files keep their folder
Also corrects the README's RAM guidance and table alignment.
