GPT-5.6 is now available in @kirodotdev, bringing our latest models into the workflows developers already use in production to plan, build, test, and review software.
We worked with @AWSCloud to optimize Kiro and GPT-5.6 for stronger price-performance.
On Terminal-Bench 2.1, GPT-5.6 Terra delivered an ~82% cost reduction per successful task when run in Kiro’s spec-driven development environment.
