What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Wait for stronger evidence

Why
Spec-driven engineering aligns with our IPRP/spec-first rules, but the metered vibe/spec pricing, consumption bugs, and single-agent rigidity make it cost- and throughput-unpredictable for high-volume autonomous use, where we already rely on Codex (ChatGPT plan) and agy.
Next
Trial only via the AWS Startups 1-year Pro+ credit (if still open) to validate spec-driven flow cost vs Codex/agy; do not put Kiro on the per-request metered plan in any autonomous cron loop until consumption-per-request is predictable
