+Kiro (the IDE and the CLI) reads `AGENTS.md` natively: a file at the
+root of the workspace is picked up automatically and is always
+included — it takes no inclusion mode, unlike a steering file under
+`.kiro/steering/`. No adapter file is installed for Kiro.
+
+This directory exists so the templates inventory is symmetric
+across supported agents, and so future Kiro-specific affordances
+have an obvious home.
+
+Two things to know when the two tools share a repository:
+
+- Keep requirements in `.doctrina/specs/`, not in Kiro's own
+  `.kiro/specs/`. Two homes for one requirement drift apart, and
+  only the Doctrina tree is what `doctrina validate`, `coverage`
+  and `close` read.
+- A steering file may add Kiro-only guidance, but it should not
+  restate `AGENTS.md`: Kiro already loads it.
+
+If you are reading this because `doctrina init --agent kiro` did
+not create any files: that is the intended behaviour.

+   - Numbers, limits, roles, statuses and messages exactly as the code
+     writes them. A value you did not see is a question, not a default.
