About

Kiro treats a written spec, not a chat prompt, as the actual unit of work — the agent plans a feature, writes design and data-flow docs, then implements, tests, and documents it end to end. It ships as both a desktop app and a CLI, supports Open VSX extensions and VS Code settings import, and doesn't require an AWS account to try, which is a notably low-friction entry point for an AWS product.

Picked this up for a side project and kept using it. Does the basics well, the extra features are hit or miss.

Better than I expected honestly.

Switched over from a competitor several months ago. Cut my debugging time down a lot this month.

It's become part of my daily workflow at this point.

Saved me from a nasty null-pointer bug last week.

Tried it after a coworker recommended it. The suggestions feel like they were written by someone who read the whole repo.

Been using this for about a couple months. It's become part of my daily workflow at this point. It catches bugs I would've missed for hours.

Sometimes rewrites code I didn't ask it to touch. Cancelled after a couple weeks.

Tried it after a coworker recommended it. Does the basics well, the extra features are hit or miss. Slows down noticeably on bigger repos.
