Four automated accounts touch the homeserver and two of them differed by one
character, which caused real confusion (a bot appearing to announce itself; the
steward unable to post in a room it had been asked to report to). This records
the distinction rather than leaving it to be rediscovered.
Power belongs to @inference-admin, voice belongs to @inferencebot, and
@inference-admin never speaks in a member room. @inference-bot is being retired:
its room power was transferred to @inference-admin, which is now administrator of
record for #general, #community, #design, #skillshare, #updates and
#infrastructure.
Also records the one live dependency that blocks finishing: the portal's member
invites still authenticate as the old account via MATRIX_BOT_TOKEN, so that has
to be repointed before its credentials are revoked. Without this written down the
next person would revoke the token and silently break member invites.
Verified while writing: the portal's token hashes to the old account's device
VYQDYBXULA, which is also the unexplained python-httpx client seen using that
account today.
