kirodotdev/KiroCrew

A persistent workspace for development work that self-improves and continues beyond one session.
Kiro Crew is an open source development workspace that runs locally or remotely on
your hardware. It is persistent, self-learning, and self-evolving. Work with it
from the desktop app, web dashboard, and CLI, or continue the same work through
connection tools like Slack and Discord.
Your multi-step tasks can run unattended, recurring jobs run on your schedule,
and heartbeats monitor systems until something needs attention. Kiro Crew Apps
tailor that experience to a specific job, combining a purpose-built interface
with agents, skills, schedules, integrations, and backend services.

## Quick start
You choose how to run Kiro Crew: the desktop app with automatic updates, a
one-line install on your machine or a remote host, the Docker image for
always-on servers, or a build from source. The default agent runs on
kiro-cli, which you install and sign in to separately. First launch checks
that prerequisite and links to the official setup guide when it is missing.
### App downloads
Each link fetches the newest build on that channel, and the app then updates
itself on the same channel. Take Stable unless you have a reason not to; see
Release channels below.
| Download | Stable | Insider | Nightly |
| macOS (Apple Silicon/Intel) .dmg | Stable | Insider | Nightly |
| Windows (x64) .exe | Stable | Insider | Nightly |
| Linux x8664 .deb | Stable | Insider | Nightly |
| Linux aarch64 .deb | Stable | Insider | Nightly |
| Linux x8664 .rpm | Stable | Insider | Nightly |
| Linux aarch64 .rpm | Stable | Insider | Nightly |
| Linux x8664 AppImage | Stable | Insider | Nightly |
| Linux aarch64 AppImage | Stable | Insider | Nightly |
On Linux, start with the one-line install below and add a desktop package when
you want a native window and in-app updates. The
install guide owns
which Linux package to pick, platform requirements, and sandbox setup.
### Release channels
Stable is the default; Insider follows release candidates, and Nightly follows
main. The release runbook owns the
current triggers, version shapes, promotion behavior, cadence, and update-lane
semantics.
### One-line install
Install the signed Stable wheel without cloning the repository or building the
frontend:
bash
curl -fsSL https://download.crew.kiro.dev/cli.sh | sh
Then open http://localhost:5476. Pass --version to pin an exact release —
the minimum pinnable release is 0.1.2, because 0.1.0 and 0.1.1 predate
manifest signing and have no signed manifest to resolve:
bash
curl -fsSL https://download.crew.kiro.dev/cli.sh | sh -s -- --version 0.6.0
The install guide owns
channel selection, managed versus system Python, mirrors, first-run setup,
upgrades, and recovery.
### Docker
For always-on servers, the Gateway ships as a public multi-arch image on GHCR:
bash
docker run -d --name kirocrew \
-p 127.0.0.1:5476:5476 \
-v kirocrew-home:/home/kirocrew \
ghcr.io/kirodotdev/kirocrew:stable
See the Docker guide for first-run login, channel tags, and
the container security model.
