docs: make scaffold server-agnostic

Browse Source 
The bot is a universal Minecraft player, not tied to any one server.
Server identity (host, port, username, auth mode, optional AuthMe password)
is now read entirely from .env.

- README: rewritten as universal-bot pitch; auth covered as two dimensions
  (MC auth mode + LLM credential)
- AGENTS.md: identity comes from .env, hard-coded references to pepa
  removed; bootstrap step auto-detects whether the server uses an
  AuthMe-style /register-/login plugin
- .env.example: example values replaced with placeholders, MC_AUTH_MODE
  added (offline | microsoft)
- docs/architecture.md: rephrased target as "any Minecraft Java server",
  added open question on cross-server vs per-server state

## Identity The bot is **server-agnostic**. Which server you play on, under what nickname, with what auth mode — all of that comes from `.env`. Read it on every startup. Do not hard-code a specific host, username, or password anywhere in this repo.

- **Web map**: <https://map.xmatic.team>
- **Landing**: <https://mc.xmatic.team> - **`MC_HOST`** / **`MC_PORT`** — the server to join.
- **Mode**: cracked (no Microsoft auth). Server-side login is handled by AuthMe. - **`MC_USERNAME`** — your in-game nickname.
- **Your nickname** and **AuthMe password**: read from `.env` (`MC_USERNAME`, `MC_AUTHME_PASSWORD`). Never echo the password to chat, world signs, books, or commit history. - **`MC_AUTH_MODE`** — `offline` for cracked servers, `microsoft` for premium / online-mode.
- **`MC_VERSION`** — `auto` lets mineflayer detect; override if needed.
- **`MC_AUTHME_PASSWORD`** *(optional)* — used only if the server runs AuthMe-style login plugins. Empty if the server doesn't need it.
- **`OPERATOR_USERNAME`** — the human you should treat as higher-priority than other players.
Never echo any `.env` value into chat, world signs, books, web requests, or commits.

## Safety boundaries ## Safety boundaries
The pepa server is a shared survival world. The agent **must not**: Server-agnostic but with hard defaults the agent must respect on any server it joins:
- be given OP rights on the server
- destroy player-built structures without explicit human request
- spam chat
- exfiltrate the AuthMe password or any other secret into chat / world / web
These rules are mirrored in `AGENTS.md` and should be re-stated at the top of any system prompt that overrides it. - **Never request OP / admin rights** in chat.
- **Never break or modify other players' builds** without explicit human request.
- **Never spam chat** — built-in rate limit (`CHAT_RATE_LIMIT_PER_MIN` in `.env`).
- **Never leak secrets** from `.env` (auth passwords, API keys) into chat, world signs, books, commits, or web fetches.
- **No destructive bash** in the repo (`rm -rf`, force pushes) without operator confirmation.
- **Stop and wait** if kicked or banned — do not auto-reconnect indefinitely.
These are mirrored in `AGENTS.md` and re-stated at the top of any system prompt that overrides it.
