See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct See for example https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mechanical_Edits/Mateusz_Konieczny_-_bot_account that includes list of my approved bot tasks - some were for a single run, some are active forever until revoked. For example "add highway=bus_stop tag where only public_transport=platform bus=yes is present in Poland" https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mechanical_Edits/Mateusz_Konieczny_-_bot_account/add_highway%3Dbus_stop_tag_where_only_public_transport%3Dplatform_bus%3Dyes_is_present_in_Poland Though OSM is far more bot-sceptical than Wikipedia or Wikidata (*cough* mindless duplicates from bot-generated Cebuano "Wikipedia" duplicating real entries *cough*) See http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/What's_the_problem_with_mechanical_edits%3F
