Description

Description

We should start to include the receiver type (HttpReceiver, SocketModeReceiver, AwsLambdaReceiver, ExpressReceiver) in the user-agent string. This would allow us to understand the adoption of each receiver and prioritize missing features based on usage.

Research direction

Start by locating where Bolt's user-agent string is assembled and where HttpReceiver, SocketModeReceiver, AwsLambdaReceiver, and ExpressReceiver are defined. Confirm how receiver identity is available at that point, then verify that the resulting user-agent identifies each receiver type.
