Bug: /api/auth/me missing user_type field after slm_auth consolidation

[mrveiss]

Problem

After #1922 removed /api/slm-auth/me, the canonical /api/auth/me endpoint returns:

{"username": "admin", "is_admin": true}

The deleted slm_auth.py version also returned "user_type": "slm_admin". Any external consumer (non-frontend) that relied on this field from /api/slm-auth/me would lose it.

The SLM frontend (auth.ts:140) already used /api/auth/me and never consumed user_type, so no frontend breakage.

Location

• autobot-slm-backend/api/auth.py, lines 136-144

Proposed Fix

Add user_type to the /me response if needed by any consumer:

return {
    "username": current_user.get("sub"),
    "is_admin": current_user.get("admin", False),
    "user_type": "slm_admin",
}

Or confirm no consumer depends on it and close as won't-fix.

Impact

Low — frontend unaffected, only potential external API consumers.
