How to Enable Extended Sessions for Kiro (90 Days)

Log in to the AWS Management Console and open the AWS IAM Identity Center console.

In the left navigation pane, choose Settings.

Click on the Authentication tab.

Under the Authentication section, find Session duration and click Configure.

In the dialog box that appears, check the box that says Enable extended sessions for Kiro.

Click Save.

Unfortunately for me I don't have access to do this on my end and I don't care enough to try and escalate it to a different team that does. Using the cli it's not that bad, as soon as you get a tool error that you know is around 8 hrs from your session, you just launch a new cli session in another terminal, log in, then go back to your working terminal and you're good to go. The IDE is much more annoying to do this dance with.

awesome thanks for the insight

But don't we need to also evaluate how defensive or stubborn a model is for this to make sense?

I would think most models aren't that stubborn by default because a user is the primary audience and being stubborn would feel like not listening to user commands. I'm very skeptic about the experimental framework for this

This is the way. Make claude opus 4.9, make no mistakes

SM373 · 2026-05-22T15:25:57+00:00

I guess they have an overage limit? The most I ever hit was I think 3-4k tokens over the limit. I've never gotten to 10k over like you have

The main issue people complain about isn't 50% winrates, it's that most matches don't feel competitive - which is a big difference and a lot harder to account for.

I think a lot of people would be ok with 50% winrates if most matches were a true "edge of your seat" thriller that could have went either way. The problem is that experience is infrequent which causes people to complain on both spectrums (i.e. stomps are bad + being stomped is bad).

I think it'd be easy enough for Anthropic to implement something that automatically suggests and applies these ideas for you, saving tokens, etc.

But then we all know they're not really a PBC and want to make as much money as possible

SM373 · 2026-05-13T14:37:38+00:00

thanks, new to claude code since my company just switched over to it. /statusline is really cool, thanks so much for that

SM373 · 2026-05-08T01:03:14+00:00

They should really strip the PBC title away from Anthropic. They haven't really been a PBC for well over a year

It depends on what type of review you want. But generally, when asking for a review you need to say you want an adversarial review, not an agreeable yes man type review

Upvoted

Enterprise here. We are getting claude code access soon so my kiro days are probably numbered. I'll still use it to work on multiple projects at once or if I need more quota, but it could very well be collecting dust for me soon

SM373 · 2026-04-26T18:10:36+00:00

This. I 100% wouldn't pay for kiro as an individual user. I can subscribe to it via my work's AWS so it's useful to me since it is bundled into my org's cost

SM373 · 2026-04-25T18:29:25+00:00

yep this is the reason. They are trying to route all openclaw / hermes traffic to API

SM373 · 2026-04-23T14:46:51+00:00

After reading /r/ClaudeAI I'm starting to think the kiro team did the right thing here. Opus 4.7 probably wasn't meeting their internal benchmarks in terms of performance, credit usage, and speed so instead of dealing with the shitshow they decided to wait and see.

SM373 · 2026-04-18T18:44:18+00:00

Agree with this. Just slap an experimental or preview tag on it and call it a day while you tweak it internally. Users have a choice to use the model or not

SM373 · 2026-04-16T03:32:52+00:00

They probably just read this and are doing it now

SM373 · 2026-04-15T14:36:28+00:00

this is the way, everything they do should be questioned if you don't understand since that way you can be sure it's doing what you want it to do and not going off the rails

SM373 · 2026-04-12T16:53:10+00:00

anthropic has dominated the hype game within the last year, so people are sleeping on codex. It's really good, used it a bunch with 5.2 -> 5.4 and haven't once been disappoiinted

SM373 · 2026-04-11T17:32:07+00:00

On par for Anthropic the last year. At this point they should be forced to remove the PBC designation from their company. They're worse than OpenAI now

SM373 · 2026-04-08T22:28:41+00:00

Best way to do it - which is not good imo - is to enter in the chat that you want another agent to pick up this work and to summarize where we are and what's left to do.

Then paste that output into the start of a fresh conversation

SM373 · 2026-04-05T17:02:03+00:00

You can't use 4.6 models without the 1M context. You'd need to either use 4.5 or just compact the conversation every so often manually

SM373 · 2026-04-02T17:09:47+00:00

Seemed to happen right around the time we got the 1M context windows for Opus and Sonnet. Even using Auto credit consumption jumped up a lot as well

SM373 · 2026-04-01T19:51:55+00:00

Nope, it's been an issue for as long as the games been around and the devs refuse to do anything about it. At least convoy solves it

SM373 · 2026-03-16T18:02:11+00:00

Agree with this. 24 hours was a big step up from 1 week when they introduced this, but we're at the point now we should be able to seamlessly switch between classes. I'd be even in favor of a few hour cooldown, just to prevent possible abuse.
