What article on docs.github.com is affected?

There's a mismatch in the docs when it comes to giving guidance to the Copilot review agent.

This page says to guide the Copilot review agent, you'll want an AGENTS/.md file.

https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/configure-custom-instructions/add-repository-instructions)

However this (outdated?) doc says that the review agent follows copilot-instructions/.md with no mention of agents/.md

https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/use-copilot-agents/request-a-code-review/use-code-review?tool=webui

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

I would like the part of the article that explains how to guide Copilot's review agent to be updated.
