  # Kiro Protocols
11
11
 
12
- ## Overview
12
+ Steering file library providing reusable content loaded on-demand to minimize context overhead.
13
13
 
14
- A comprehensive library of reusable protocols (step-by-step workflows) that can be loaded on-demand by AI agents, steering documents, and other Kiro Powers. Each protocol provides detailed instructions for specific tasks like agent management, mode switching, and interactive patterns.
14
+ ## Usage
15
15
 
16
- **What are Protocols?**
17
-
18
- Protocols are detailed, step-by-step instruction documents that guide AI through complex workflows. Instead of embedding these instructions directly in every steering document, protocols are loaded dynamically only when needed, reducing context overhead and improving maintainability.
19
-
20
- **Key Benefits:**
21
- - **On-Demand Loading** - Protocols load only when needed, minimizing context
22
- - **Single Source of Truth** - One protocol, many consumers
23
- - **Reusable Across Powers** - Any power can reference these protocols
24
- - **Maintainable** - Update once, affects all consumers
25
- - **Extensible** - Easy to add new protocols
26
-
27
- ## Available Protocols

68
- ## How to Use Protocols
69
-
70
- ### Method 1: Direct Steering File Load (Recommended)
71
-
72
- Use Kiro's built-in power tools to load protocols on-demand:
73
-
74
- ```markdown
75
- **Load protocol:**
76
- 1. Call kiroPowers action="activate" with powerName="kiro-protocols"
77
- 2. Call kiroPowers action="readSteering" with powerName="kiro-protocols", steeringFile="agent-activation.md"
78
- 3. Follow all steps from the loaded protocol
79
- ```
80
-
81
- **Example in steering document:**
82
- ```markdown
83
- When user activates agent:
84
- 1. Load agent-activation protocol from kiro-protocols power
85
- 2. Execute protocol steps with agent name as parameter
86
- 3. Agent assumes role and begins interaction
87
- ```
88
-
89
- ### Method 2: Instruction Alias Pattern
90
-
91
- Create reusable aliases that load protocols:
92
-
93
- ```markdown
94
- <alias>
95
- <trigger>/protocol {protocol_name}</trigger>
96
- <definition>
97
- ## Load Protocol: {protocol_name}
98
-
99
- **Execute protocol loading:**
100
- 1. Call kiroPowers action="activate" with powerName="kiro-protocols"
101
- 2. Call kiroPowers action="readSteering" with powerName="kiro-protocols", steeringFile="{protocol_name}.md"
102
- 3. Follow all steps from the loaded protocol
103
- </definition>
104
- </alias>
105
- ```
106
-
107
- ### Method 3: Programmatic Reference
108
-
109
- Reference protocols in your steering documents:
110
-
111
- ```markdown
112
- **When creating new agent:**
113
- - Load `agent-creation.md` protocol from kiro-protocols power
114
- - Follow wizard steps to gather information
115
- - Generate agent definition file
116
- - Validate and offer activation
117
- ```
118
-
119
- ## Protocol Structure
120
-
121
- Each protocol follows a consistent structure:
122
-
123
- ```markdown
124
- # Protocol Name
125
-
126
- Brief description of what this protocol does.
127
-
128
- ## Protocol Steps
129
-
130
- ### Step 1: [Action Name]
131
-
132
- Detailed instructions for this step...
133
-
134
- ### Step 2: [Action Name]
135
-
136
- Detailed instructions for this step...
137
-
138
- [Additional steps...]
139
-
140
- ---
141
-
142
- **Protocol complete. [Next action guidance]**
143
- ```
144
-
145
- ## Best Practices
146
-
147
- ### For Protocol Consumers
148
-
149
- 1. **Load on-demand** - Only load protocols when needed
150
- 2. **Follow steps sequentially** - Protocols are designed as ordered workflows
151
- 3. **Preserve context** - Protocols may reference previous steps
152
- 4. **Handle errors gracefully** - Protocols include error handling guidance
153
-
154
- ### For Protocol Authors
155
-
156
- 1. **Keep focused** - One protocol, one workflow
157
- 2. **Be explicit** - Clear, actionable steps
158
- 3. **Include examples** - Show expected inputs/outputs
159
- 4. **Document dependencies** - List required context or prerequisites
160
- 5. **Version carefully** - Breaking changes affect all consumers
161
-
162
- ## Creating Custom Protocols
163
-
164
- Want to add your own protocols to this power?
165
-
166
- 1. **Fork the repository** - https://github.com/Theadd/kiro-agents
167
- 2. **Add protocol file** - Create `.md` file in `src/core/protocols/`
168
- 3. **Follow structure** - Use existing protocols as templates
169
- 4. **Build and test** - Run build script and test in Kiro IDE
170
- 5. **Submit PR** - Contribute back to the community
171
-
172
- ## Integration Examples
173
-
174
- ### Example 1: Agent System
175
-
176
- ```markdown
177
- # agents.md (steering document)
178
-
179
- When user types `/agents {name}`:
180
- 1. Load agent-activation protocol
181
- 2. Pass agent name as parameter
182
- 3. Execute protocol steps
183
- 4. Agent activates and assumes role
184
- ```
185
-
186
- ### Example 2: Mode System
16
+ Load steering files on-demand via instruction aliases or direct kiroPowers calls:
187
17
 
188
18
  ```markdown
189
- # modes.md (steering document)
190
-
191
- When user types `/modes {mode}`:
192
- 1. Load mode-switching protocol
193
- 2. Pass mode name as parameter
194
- 3. Check for workflow state preservation
195
- 4. Execute mode switch
19
+ /protocols agent-activation.md
20
+ /only-read-protocols chit-chat.md
196
21
  ```
197
22
 
198
- ### Example 3: Custom Power
23
+ Or directly:
199
24
 
200
25
  ```markdown
201
- # my-custom-power/steering/workflow.md
202
-
203
- When complex workflow needed:
204
- 1. Load agent-management protocol from kiro-protocols
205
- 2. Use interactive chit-chat pattern
206
- 3. Guide user through multi-step process
207
- 4. Apply custom power logic
26
+ kiroPowers action="readSteering" powerName="kiro-protocols" steeringFile="agent-activation.md"
208
27
  ```
209
28
 
210
- ## Troubleshooting
211
-
212
- ### Protocol Not Found
213
-
214
- **Problem:** Error loading protocol file
215
-
216
- **Solutions:**
217
- 1. Verify kiro-protocols power is installed
218
- 2. Check protocol name spelling (case-sensitive)
219
- 3. Ensure protocol exists in available list above
220
- 4. Try reloading power: Kiro Powers panel → Reload
221
-
222
- ### Protocol Outdated
223
-
224
- **Problem:** Protocol references old paths or commands
225
-
226
- **Solutions:**
227
- 1. Update kiro-protocols power to latest version
228
- 2. Check GitHub releases for breaking changes
229
- 3. Review protocol changelog in repository
230
-
231
- ### Context Overflow
232
-
233
- **Problem:** Too many protocols loaded at once
234
-
235
- **Solutions:**
236
- 1. Load protocols only when needed (not upfront)
237
- 2. Use on-demand loading pattern
238
- 3. Consider splitting complex workflows
239
- 4. Unload unused protocols from context
240
-
241
- ## Version Compatibility
242
-
243
- This power follows semantic versioning:
244
-
245
- - **Major version** - Breaking changes to protocol structure
246
- - **Minor version** - New protocols added
247
- - **Patch version** - Bug fixes and clarifications
248
-
249
- **Current Version:** 1.0.0
250
-
251
- **Compatibility:**
252
- - Kiro IDE: All versions with Powers support
253
- - kiro-agents: v1.6.0+
254
-
