Subject: [PATCH] feat(seed): install AGENTS.md from seed to zot's ZOT_HOME
 global slot
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The seed importer already dual-writes SSH material to the daemon home.
Adds an AGENTS.md install block targeting /var/db/colibri/.local/state/zot/ —
the path pinned by colibri_daemon.in's ZOT_HOME export. Zot reads this as
its first AGENTS.md source, giving the autospawned agent operational rules
(mother, verbs, capabilities) on first boot.
