📊 Current Bot Status

Bots in System: 4 total

1. TestBot_1755739046 - Active, Online (from test script)
2. Test Bot 2 - Active, Online (from test script)
3. Test Bot - Active (from initial tests)
4. UI Test Bot - Active, Never seen (newly created)

"Online" Status Explanation

The TestBots show as "Online" because our automated testing script sent heartbeat requests, which updates the LastSeenAt timestamp. This is normal behavior - bots appear online when they actively communicate with the system.
