+#### go/types
+
+The `Var.Kind` method returns an enumeration of type `VarKind` that
+classifies the variable (package-level, local, receiver, parameter,
+result, or struct field). See issue #70250.
+
+Callers of `NewVar` or `NewParam` are encouraged to call `Var.SetKind`
+to ensure that this attribute is set correctly in all cases.
