Follow-on to #6, which merged before this landed.

Adds two sections the README was missing and links copilotkit.ai/openbot from the header nav and the documentation list.

What it is: runs in your own infrastructure, your PostgreSQL, no bundled model and an admin-supplied credential that is encrypted and never logged. Names the three teammates that actually ship (General Assistant, Knowledge, Risk Analyst) as configuration rather than code.

Built on AG-UI: a Bot is any AG-UI endpoint, which is why agents nobody here wrote work with it, and why the governance rides the protocol rather than a framework.

Taken from the launch page and filtered against the code. Left out: the knowledge/citations story (retrieval is an in-memory map whose search ignores the question, and no embedder is called), Helm (no chart), six agent roles (three ship), conversations-in-Postgres (they are in Intelligence), and gateway-with-allowlist (the shipped default permits every host).

The README opened on what a Bot gets without ever saying what the thing is:
a platform that runs in your own infrastructure, with your database, your
model credential and three teammates that are configuration rather than code.
It also never explained that a Bot is any AG-UI endpoint, which is the reason
it works with agents nobody here wrote.

Links copilotkit.ai/openbot from the header and the documentation list.
