AWS Kiro
An AI coding assistant tool launched by Amazon Web Services. It can act as an MCP host to interact with external tools and supports natural-language-driven development.
Timeline (last 90 days)
AWS Kiro adopts spec-driven development, refusing to write code before a rigorous requirements specification is written, used to guard against agent thrashing (spinning in place and repeatedly trial-and-erroring).
Specification-driven development introduces additional upfront friction and is better suited to enterprise scenarios with well-defined requirements and high iteration costs, rather than rapid prototyping
