Introducing Workflows in Kiro Web
Run reusable, multi-step agent plans in Kiro Web cloud sessions, inspect and guide every step, and keep working in the parent conversation.
Workflows are now available as an opt-in feature in Kiro Web cloud sessions. They run reusable, multi-step agent plans in the background while you continue working in the parent conversation.
Describe the outcome and how much structure or review you want. Kiro proposes a Workflow, names its steps, agents, and effort, and launches it in the background. Ask Kiro to investigate a codebase for risks, deliver a feature with independent reviewers, or make a failing build green. Each step runs in its own agent session, which you open from the Workflows panel; it sees only what earlier steps hand it, and the run pauses when a step needs your input.
Start with one of three bundled recipes: investigate for read-only investigation, feature-pipeline for staged feature delivery, or publish-pr for opening a pull request and handling review feedback.
Once a Workflow is running, open Workflows from the side panel in the parent conversation and select a run to inspect its nested steps. Select a step to see its status, elapsed time, agent, model, effort, and tool activity. You can Answer this step when it pauses, Steer the agent while it runs, or Message this step's agent for other guidance. You can also pause, resume, or stop a run. After a failure, you can retry the failed steps. Summary, Files, and Artifacts also share the side panel to keep outcomes and evidence in the session.
Open Settings > Workflows and turn on Enable workflows. Use Upload workflow for one .workflow.json, .workflow.yaml, or .workflow.yml recipe, or use Configuration Sync to import a complete .kiro/workflows/ folder. Turning Workflows off hides its surfaces and prevents new launches.
