This update is all about making it easier and safer for Kiro (a command-line tool) to connect to external AI services, known as MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers. If you are a developer building or using tools that require strict, pre-approved security logins (using a secure login standard called OAuth), this release gives you the exact settings you need to connect Kiro to them without any friction.
What's new
- Support for Pre-Registered Apps: You can now connect Kiro to external servers that require your app to be registered beforehand. Instead of Kiro trying to register itself automatically on the fly, it will log in using your specific app credentials.
- Client Secrets: You can now add a
clientSecret(essentially a password for your app) alongside yourclientId(the app's username) in the configuration file. - Custom Redirect Links: When logging in, you can now use exact, custom web addresses (like
http://localhost:7778/oauth/callback) to match what you registered with the external service. For safety, these links must still run on your own computer (localhost).
