Folder Hierarchy

Files gald3r writes and the directories it expects for Kiro. The .kiro/ tree is the primary gald3r surface.

project-root/
.kiro/
├── steering/       *.md     ← always-apply rules (project-wide)
├── specs/          *.md     ← spec-driven task definitions
├── agents/         *.md     ← sub-agents
├── skills/         <name>/SKILL.md
└── settings/
    └── mcp.json    ← MCP config
AGENTS.md           ← instruction file

Key Setup Notes

  • Steering docs in .kiro/steering/ replace traditional always-apply rules
  • Spec-driven workflow: specs/ define task requirements before implementation
  • Agent Hooks on file events and CLI lifecycle
  • MCP via .kiro/settings/mcp.json
