Promptz & Community Resources

Instead of building everything from scratch, leverage community resources to accelerate your development. Promptz.dev is a community library for sharing Kiro resources.

What is Promptz.dev?

Promptz.dev is a community-driven library where developers share:

Powers

Pre-built Power packages like Draw.io diagrams, PowerPoint slides, and more.

Agents

Pre-configured agents for specific tasks like the Bedrock Model Agent.

Steering Docs

Ready-to-use coding standards, style guides, and project conventions.

Prompts & Hooks

Effective prompts and automation hooks tested by the community.

Finding Resources on Promptz

1. Browse the catalog

   Visit promptz.dev and browse by category (Powers, Agents, Steering, Prompts).

2. Filter by compatibility

   Resources are tagged for IDE and/or CLI compatibility. Filter based on your workflow.

3. Review and install

   Each resource includes documentation and installation instructions.

4. Contribute back

   Share your own resources to help the community!

Practical Examples

Finding Steering Docs

Instead of writing PEP 8 or accessibility guidelines from scratch:

1. Search Promptz for “PEP 8” or “accessibility”
2. Find community-tested steering docs
3. Download and add to your .kiro/steering/ directory
4. Customize as needed for your project

Using Community Prompts

Find effective prompts for common tasks:

• Code review prompts — Thorough review checklists
• Refactoring prompts — Safe refactoring patterns
• Documentation prompts — Consistent doc generation
• Testing prompts — Comprehensive test generation

Tip

Community prompts are often more refined than first attempts. They’ve been tested and improved by multiple developers.
