Pull request overview
Updates the Custom Instructions documentation to match current Kilo Code UI iconography and to document the current file-based conventions for mode-specific instructions.
Changes:
- Update the Modes tab icon reference from
<Codicon name="organization" />to<Codicon name="notebook" />. - Add a new “Mode-Specific Instructions from Files” section pointing to the preferred/fallback rules file paths and noting legacy naming.
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.

The mode-specific instructions UI steps are indented by 4 spaces, which in CommonMark/Docusaurus Markdown renders as an indented code block. That will likely cause the {% image ... %} and the * bullet list to display as code rather than as an image + list. Consider removing the leading indentation (or nesting it under an actual list item) so the content renders correctly.
