💡 What the Columns Mean:

Transfer Funds: Can do balance or transfer_stake calls.

Stake Tokens: Can add_stake, remove_stake, etc.

Govern: Can interact with Senate, Triumvirate, governance calls.

Admin (Sudo): Has access to Sudo or sudo-like functions.

Non-Critical Calls: Can do things that aren't dangerous or destructive.

Full Access: Implies general-purpose, including sensitive actions.

📝 Notes

SmallTransfer is a subset of Transfer, with a limit.

Governance includes both Senate and Triumvirate.

NonCritical blocks very sensitive calls (like dissolve_network, sudo, etc.).

SudoUncheckedSetCode only allows a specific kind of powerful system update.

SubnetLeaseBeneficiary is a specialized admin group for managing serving parameters (difficulty, weight settings, etc.).
