Iterating with Specs

One of the strengths of spec-driven development is the ability to iterate by updating your specs.

1. Ask Kiro to update the specs

   To add features or make changes, ask Kiro to update the specs file rather than making ad-hoc code changes.

   

2. Review updated specs and task list

   Kiro updates all the spec documents — requirements, design, and task list — to reflect the new changes. New tasks appear in the task list, ready to be executed.

   

   Then, you can start building with Kiro using the updated task list, just like before.

Tip

Iterating through specs keeps your documentation in sync with the code. Each iteration cycle follows the same structured process: update specs → review → execute tasks.
