User-reported product reliability issues: agent hooks bug, circular debugging loop, and slowness (medium) Independent user review reports multiple reproducible product-quality incidents: (a) Agent Hooks behavior: when configured to trigger on file-save, the hook was queued but did not execute after each task as expected — instead it was appended to the end of the task queue, preventing per-task commits (user configured git-commit-on-save hook). (b) Circular debugging loop: when asked to debug and fix an issue, the system repeated the same changes more than ten times until the user manually cancelled the task. (c) Performance slowness: reviewer experienced intermittent slowness, with Claude 3.7 responding faster than Sonnet 4.0 in their trial. The reviewer also states they spent ~8 hours building a TODO app during Kiro’s initial release/preview and documents the specific behaviors above and the $19/month reference for paid access beyond preview.. Multiple similarly named web properties and potential brand/impersonation risk (medium) Search results show multiple distinct domains using the 'Kiro' name with overlapping or different offerings: the apparent official site (https://kiro.dev/) and a site with highly similar product marketing (https://kiro-ai.net/), plus unrelated properties using the same brand name (https://joinkiro.com/ appears to market a separate 'Kiro' AI coach product; https://kiro.uk/ is a jewellery store). The presence of multiple domains with overlapping copy or the same brand name increases risk of customer confusion, phishing, counterfeit offerings, and difficulty verifying official channels.. Ambiguous corporate affiliation claim: 'built and operated by a small team within AWS' on official About page (medium) Kiro's About page asserts: 'Kiro is built and operated by a small, opinionated team within AWS.' (text on https://kiro.dev/about/). That is a specific corporate-affiliation claim that materially affects trust and procurement decisions. In the research results provided there is no corroborating AWS press release or an AWS-owned domain link confirming Kiro as an AWS-operated product; the claim therefore warrants verification (possible misrepresentation risk if uncorroborated).
