Which Kiro app should I pick?

Kiro has converged on a single agent harness that underlies multiple front doors, including IDE, CLI, web app, and mobile app, providing a consistent experience and seamless session management. This design allows core capabilities to be added to the harness, benefiting all apps, and enables setup and preferences to travel with the user across different surfaces. By choosing a front door (app), users are selecting a specific interface to their shared engine, rather than a complete platform.

Kiro powers now support Agent Plugins

Here's a 3-sentence summary of the engineering blog post: Kiro powers now support Agent Plugins 1.0.0, an open standard for packaging agent extensions, making it easier to develop and reuse skills and MCP servers. This standardization allows plugins published under Agent Plugins to be installable in Kiro as powers, without requiring Kiro-specific packaging. With Agent Plugins support, Kiro developers can now write against a single documented format and deploy their powers on multiple clients, enhancing portability and reuse.
