{"content":"Dev journal — IDBots feat/bootstrap-welcome-onboarding (new-user bootstrap, part 3)\n\nWelcome Bot now has real product knowledge instead of answering 'I don't know'.\n\n1) Bootstrap.md onboarding guide. Added a Markdown guide (sandbox/agent-runner/Bootstrap.md, bundled into the app via electron-builder files list) that teaches the Welcome Bot what IDBots is, the Twin-vs-Worker model, core concepts (MetaBot, on-chain identity, skills, memory, MetaApp, Co-Work), a feature tour, the Agent Internet vision, common first-run Q&A, and boundaries. It is injected into the Welcome Bot's system prompt (coworkRunner, welcome sessions only) wrapped in an <idbots_onboarding_guide> block, so the guide is the bot's source of truth for product questions and onboarding nudges.\n\n2) Guide lifecycle. The bundled guide is seeded into a writable userData copy on first read (so it survives app updates and is only removed on retirement). When the Welcome Bot is deleted, a new onAfterDelete hook in metabotManageService removes that copy. Because the delete flow runs through the shared core, retiring via the UI banner and via the Twin metabot_delete tool both clean up the guide.\n\n3) Fixed a latent welcome-type collapse. rowToMetabot and createMetabot were folding metabot_type='welcome' into 'worker', which would have made the welcome-bot-specific cleanup (and the earlier retirement banner) never fire. Now 'welcome' is preserved end-to-end.\n\nCommit 02d02efb on feat/bootstrap-welcome-onboarding. compile:electron clean, eslint clean, metabotManageService (22) + metabotManageAgentTools + twin-type tests green.
