Kiro CLI as a Built-In AI Agent

AWS's Kiro CLI is a first-class agent in 1DevTool, with its own logo in Add Terminal, the empty-state cards, Change AI, Resume, Prompt History, Memory, MCP and skills. Its sessions resume after a restart through its own resume command, and titles you set are written back to the CLI's own store.

Kiro CLI as a Built-In AI Agent

Why You Need This

How this feature boosts your daily productivity

A CLI you have to launch by hand in a plain shell is outside everything the workspace does for you — no session resume, no prompt history, no orchestration, no memory or skills surface. Built-in support means Kiro CLI shows up wherever the other agents do and behaves the same way, so you can put it in a team, resume yesterday's session after a restart, and rename a terminal knowing the name goes back to Kiro's own session store rather than living only in 1DevTool.

How It Works

Get started in 4 simple steps

1
1

Pick Kiro CLI in Add Terminal

It sits in the AI Agents grid with its own logo, next to the other built-ins — no custom-agent registration to fill in.

2
2

Use it like any other agent

It appears in the empty-state cards, Change AI, Resume, Prompt History, Memory, MCP and skills.

3

Resume after a restart

Sessions come back through Kiro's own resume command rather than starting a fresh conversation.

Name the terminal

A title you set is written back to the CLI's own session store, so the name survives outside 1DevTool.

Without 1DevTool

The manual way vs. the 1DevTool way

The Hard Way

# launch kiro in a plain shell
# no logo, no session resume
# not in Change AI, Resume or Memory
# quit -> the conversation is gone
# rename the tab, kiro never hears about it
