Chatting with the agent


You can chat with the Kiro Web agent to discuss approaches, ask questions, and provide guidance before and during task execution.

Before creating a task

Use chat to:

  • Discuss different implementation approaches
  • Clarify requirements or constraints
  • Get the agent's input on technical decisions

The agent has access to web search, learnings from previous code reviews, and context from other tasks to provide informed responses.

During task execution

Once a task is created, you can continue chatting to:

  • Steer the agent on the implementation approach
  • Provide additional requirements or constraints
  • Ask the agent to do more work after reviewing initial results

Any comments or steering will update the scope of the current task. You cannot create a second task in the same session — to work on a different task, start a new session.
