Open durable Kiro artifacts beside chat in Agent Focus

Kiro 1.1.70 makes agent documents, diagrams, code, and images durable artifacts you can preview, review beside chat in Agent Focus, and reopen from the context panel. Native ARM64 Windows/Linux builds replace x64 emulation. Compacted chats keep context; MCP errors are clearer; enterprise profiles honor the selected region.

Why this loop

v1.1.70 changes how you should treat Kiro output. Agents can now produce durable artifacts (documents, diagrams, code, images, and other outputs) instead of leaving them buried in the chat transcript. The intended loop is: compact preview from the conversation, full review beside chat in Agent Focus, and later return from the Agent Focus context panel. Copying from transcripts is the old path. ARM64 Windows and Linux users should install native builds rather than x64 emulation so they run the same IDE 1.1 stack (Code OSS 1.131) without emulation. Compacted conversations retain the right context, so continue a long thread instead of starting a new chat to recover history. MCP failures are clearer—use that signal before repeating a broken tool. Enterprise profiles route requests to the selected region, so confirm region choice after upgrade. Do not assume extra changes from the truncated later changelog fragment.

Proposed actions

  1. Upgrade to Kiro v1.1.70. On ARM64 Windows or Linux, choose the native ARM64 installer from the Kiro downloads page instead of the x64-emulated package.
  2. Paste to Kiro: Turn every document, diagram, code file, and image you produce into a durable artifact. I will open the compact preview from this conversation and review the full artifact beside chat in Agent Focus—do not leave outputs only in the transcript.
  3. After the agent finishes, open the compact preview from the conversation, review the full artifact beside the chat in Agent Focus, then reopen it later from the Agent Focus context panel instead of scrolling chat history.
  4. If you use an enterprise profile, confirm Kiro routes requests to the region you selected after upgrading to 1.1.70.
  5. When an MCP server fails in Kiro 1.1.70, read the clearer failure message and fix that server or tool call before retrying; keep the same compacted conversation so retained context is not discarded.

Your job

  1. Restate the change in one sentence.
  2. Propose a minimal plan for my repo (or a throwaway pilot).
  3. Implement only what I approve; prefer small diffs and tests.
  4. Call out risks (permissions, breaking APIs, cost).
