At what probability (descending from 1 to 0) should a newly-woken SB start taking the bet that they're in the Tails world?

Depends on self-altruism and such concepts. No longer as clear cut. The question comes down to "do you prefer that your copies all get a dollar, or what"

If I need to specify the degree of "self-altruism," suppose that sleeping beauty is not a human, but is instead a reinforcement-learning robot with no altruism module, self- or otherwise.
