Course Overview
Spec-Driven Development with Kiro is a two-day, instructor-led training course designed for developers, software engineers, and technical leads adopting AI-assisted, agentic development practices. The course teaches the principles of agentic coding and how to apply them using Kiro, the agentic IDE for software development. Participants learn to plan and implement features through Kiro Feature Specs and Bugfix Specs, control agent behavior with steering files and execution modes, and extend agent capabilities with Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and Kiro Powers. The course also covers automating workflows with agent hooks, packaging reusable expertise with agent skills and custom subagents, and configuring projects for team collaboration and enterprise governance. Hands on labs are interleaved with module content throughout each day. On Day 1, learners progressively build a weather application using each Kiro capability as it is taught. On Day 2, learners deploy, extend, and team-enable a pre-built micro-blogging application.

- Basic understanding of RESTful APIs and cloud application concepts
- Foundational knowledge of generative AI concepts (LLMs, tokens, inference)
Course Objectives
In this course, you learn to do the following:
- Implement spec-driven development workflows using specifications to plan, design, and execute features and fixes
- Configure and control agent behavior using steering files, context providers, execution modes (Autopilot and Supervised), and custom subagents
- Extend agent capabilities using Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and Kiro Powers to integrate external tools, services, and domain expertise
- Automate and scale development workflows using agent hooks, agent skills, shared steering, and custom subagents
- Build and share reusable agent capabilities by creating custom Kiro Powers, agent skills, and custom subagents for team-specific workflows
- Apply enterprise governance controls for MCP registry allowlisting, model governance, and extension management
