Add KILO_PROFILE flag gating debug HTTP endpoints and periodic memory logging on the kilo serve backend. This enables investigating memory leaks that occur when the Agent Manager is used over extended periods, particularly on Windows with large worktree diffs. - GET /global/debug/memory — current process.memoryUsage() stats - POST /global/debug/snapshot — write V8 heap snapshot to disk - POST /global/debug/gc — force GC and report before/after - 30s periodic memory logging when KILO_PROFILE=1 - --profile flag on bun run extension to enable everything

Don't review this, only to profile memory issues on Windows
Summary
KILO_PROFILE=1env flag and--profileoption tobun run extensionthat enables memory profiling of thekilo servebackend process/global/debug/memory,/global/debug/snapshot,/global/debug/gc) for on-demand memory inspection and heap snapshot capturepackages/kilo-vscode/docs/infrastructure/memory-profiling.mdcovering the full profiling workflow, suspected causes, and analysis techniquesThis is investigative tooling for the Windows memory leak where the Bun process accumulates multiple GB of RSS over extended Agent Manager usage with large worktree diffs. The doc describes what we know so far (RSS grows outside V8 heap, pointing to native buffer accumulation from git stdout buffering) and how to reproduce/measure it.
