AI coding agent for VS Code, JetBrains and Visual Studio with bring-your-own-key model freedom
Connect Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok or local Ollama/LM Studio models with your own API keys, or use CodeGPT credits, and switch models per task without moving your code.
The agent reads your codebase, proposes a plan you can edit, and writes code only after you approve each step, keeping you in control of every change.
Watch which files are read, which options are weighed and which edits are suggested, with live tracking of context usage and no hidden limits.
Bridge the agent to external APIs, documentation and databases through MCP, and define project rules so generated code follows your standards.
A spec-driven AI IDE and agent platform that plans, builds, reviews, and verifies real engineering work.
You describe intent and context first; Kiro captures requirements and design as specifications, then verifies the finished implementation against them.
Kiro Crew watches your backlog, codebase, or CI, triages new work, delegates to specialized bots, and returns results for your review.
Long tasks split into checked steps so agents cannot shortcut a failed test, and review agents inspect diffs before a human approves a merge.
Use the IDE, mobile, or web, run headless in CI/CD with the CLI, or trigger Kiro from Slack, Microsoft Teams, GitHub, and GitLab.
