Release Notes
Kiro CLI 2.26.0 adds opt-in Workflows for reusable, multi-step tasks and helps Classic users identify what to change before moving to the terminal UI. V3 also tightens approval checks for Hook and Language Server Protocol (LSP) file writes, for MCP tools and shell commands in untrusted workspaces, and for approvals that change while an action waits.
