Timed out. Passes 6-2 (5 fors, jumble’s also resolves to for)—clucky

Add a new dynastic rule called “Bots” with the following text
Bots are Workers for the purposes of dynastic rules only. Bots start with the same default values which other Workers have. Each Bot has a name, and a set of behavior that describes how the bot operates. Bots are tracked alongside the other Workers on the dynastic tracking page, but their rows are given a background color of #cff to help signify they are a bot.
The list of bots and their behavior is below:
* Name: Sharebot. Behavior: Provided they have not already done so since the last Cycle, any Worker may cause Sharebot to perform any action which Sharebot is legally allowed to perform.
* Name: Sleepybot. Behavior: Sleepybot cannot perform any actions
* Name: Cogbot. Behavior: If no Worker has done so since the last Cycle, a Worker may turn on Cogbot. When Cogbot is turned on it performs the following atomic action: Cogbot first activate its cold spin machines until it either has no more cold spin machines or no more energy. Cogbot then activates its cold clink machines, always using its largest value box, until it either has no more cold clink machines or no more boxes. When choosing between which machine to activate out of those which fit the criteria for a given step, Cogbot always chooses the machine earliest in its machine list
Give Cogbot two clink machines (for a total of 3) and 3 spin machines.
Redoing bots, adding third bot type for funsizes that just hoards cogs, and putting limits on sharebot abuse because sharing is caring.

This version of the proposal still doesn’t fix the concerns I had about the previous version – it’s very likely to do nothing but clutter the dynastic tracking page, and if it does do something, then it’ll probably break the dynasty.
