SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Interactive feature development workflow from idea to implementation. Creates requirements (EARS format), design documents, and implementation task lists. Use when creating feature specs, requirements documents, design documents, or implementation plans. Triggered by "kiro" or references to .kiro/specs/ directory.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-based guidance for Requirements, Design, Tasks, and Execution.
  • Automatically generates and organizes artifacts under .kiro/specs/{feature-name}/requirements.md, design.md, and tasks.md.
  • Supports explicit approval gates and iterative review to ensure alignment.

Quick Start

Provide a feature idea and ask KIRO to guide you through requirements, design, and task planning.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create feature specs from an idea to executable tasks?

Feature specs are created through a phase-gated workflow that generates structured artifacts like requirements.md, design.md, and tasks.md under the .kiro/specs directory to guide development from idea to executable task planning.

What is the EARS format for requirements documents?

The EARS format is a structured method used to write software requirements within the requirements.md artifact, ensuring clear, testable conditions that support incremental development before design and task phases begin.

How do I manage requirements, design, and task planning before implementation?

You manage pre-implementation planning through a phase-based workflow with explicit approval gates, generating and reviewing .kiro/specs artifacts sequentially to ensure alignment between requirements, design documents, and implementation task lists.

Can I enforce approval gates iteratively during feature specification?

Yes, the feature specification workflow supports explicit approval gates and iterative review at each phase, ensuring team alignment and structured progression before moving from requirements to design and final task execution.

Does the feature spec workflow support test-driven incremental development?

Yes, the workflow generates structured artifacts and guidance specifically to support test-driven, incremental development, breaking down design documents into organized implementation task lists for phased execution.

Why use a .kiro/specs directory for feature specification?

The .kiro/specs directory automatically organizes generated feature artifacts like requirements.md, design.md, and tasks.md into structured folders, maintaining clear documentation and traceability throughout the development lifecycle.
