Helps users set up a complete Kiro project structure with steering files, skills directory, and proper configuration. Use when user says "set up kiro project", "initialize kiro", "create kiro structure", or "add kiro configuration".
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Kiro Project Setup Skill Sets up a complete Kiro project structure so your AI assistant understands your project conventions, has access to custom skills, and respects your configuration preferences. ## Instructions When triggered, perform the following steps: 1. **Create the `.kiro/steering/` directory** with a `conventions.md` file containing: - Project naming conventions (file naming, variable naming) - Code style preferences (formatting, linting rules) - Architecture patterns used in the project - Any team-specific rules the user provides 2. **Create the `.kiro/skills/` directory** for project-level skills: - Add a placeholder `SKILL.md` explaining that project-specific skills live here - These skills are scoped to the repository and not shared globally 3. **Add `.gitignore` entries** for `.kiro/` temp files if needed: - If your AI tools create cache or temp files, consider adding entries like `.kiro/cache/` or `.kiro/tmp/` to `.gitignore` - Keep `.kiro/steering/` and `.kiro/skills/` tracked in version control 4. **Create a README section** (or suggest additions) covering: - How the project uses Kiro steering files …

How to install
mdr add timwukp/agent-skills-best-practice/kiro-project-setup@sha256:c5cbd1e5d4c8ad19The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
