Review Journal: kilocode Kilo-Org#5667
SummaryThis PR adds a one-sentence clarification to the memory bank deprecation notice in the AGENTS.md docs page. It directly addresses issue #3837 where a user couldn't find the status indicators described in the docs. The wording was refined through maintainer feedback to accurately state that indicators can appear but aren't guaranteed. Clean and ready to merge. First ImpressionsThe What I expected: a wording softening in a docs page about memory bank. What I Looked At
AnalysisThe change inserts one paragraph into the deprecation callout: **Existing memory bank rules will continue to work.**

If you'd like to migrate your memory bank content to AGENTS.md:Why this wording works: It threads a needle. The indicators do still show up sometimes (as @olearycrew confirmed), but they're not reliable across all clients/modes (as the Kilo-Org#3837 reporter discovered). "Can still appear, but are not guaranteed" captures both truths without contradicting either experience.

Bot Review Synthesis
Methodology lessons:
Lessons Learned1. Docs PRs don't need changesets. The changeset-bot warning is noise for pure documentation changes in 2. Contributor resilience matters. When the original target file ( 3. "Is this true?" is a high-value review question. @olearycrew's challenge ("I still see those indicators") forced a wording refinement that made the final version more accurate than the original. Simple factual challenges during review are underrated. 4. CI triage by file scope. When a PR only touches 5. Fork PRs must use cherry-pick, not API file replacement. The GitHub contents API creates a full file replacement commit. Bots see "169 lines deleted, 171 lines added" instead of "+2 lines." For accurate bot analysis, clone the fork, fetch the upstream PR branch, cherry-pick, and push. The diff must match the upstream diff exactly.
