Use gald3r with Kiro¶
Kiro (Amazon) ships in two product lines: an agentic IDE (VS Code-based) and the Kiro CLI (the rebrand of Amazon Q Developer CLI). Extension mechanisms are largely shared, with config under .kiro/ (workspace) and ~/.kiro/ (global).
Installing gald3r into a Kiro project writes the CRASH overlay this tool actually reads into .kiro/ — the same task board, bug tracker, and gald3r <verb> CLI every other supported platform gets, wired the way Kiro itself expects it. Today that's commands native, rules native, skills native, hooks native, MCP native via the gald3r engine's MCP (L2). Cheapest high-parity install: ship gald3r's g-skl-*/SKILL.md tree straight into .kiro/skills/ — Kiro uses the identical open Agent Skills standard, so there is no per-platform port. Add AGENTS.md (always-read) and a .kiro/steering/gald3r.md context file; map gald3r rules to steering inclusion modes and gald3r lifecycle hooks to the CLI events.
Once installed, the same .gald3r/TASKS.md task board, bug tracker, and full gald3r <verb> CLI work identically to every other supported platform — Kiro is one of 37 platforms gald3r reads and writes today. Commonly searched as Kiro IDE, Amazon Kiro.
