Assessment: Request Changes
The documentation content is excellent - comprehensive, well-organized, and covers multiple AI coding assistants (Kiro, Claude Code, Cursor) with practical examples. However, there's one blocking issue that needs to be addressed.
Review Details
- Blocking: An
install.logfile was accidentally committed and must be removed before merging - Documentation Quality: The guide is well-structured with clear sections, practical code examples, and helpful best practices
- Navigation: The new "Guides" section in
navigation.ymlis properly placed
Once the log file is removed, this PR is ready to merge. Great work on creating a useful resource for developers using AI coding assistants with Strands!

Assessment: Request Changes
The documentation content is comprehensive and well-structured, providing valuable guidance for developers integrating AI coding assistants with Strands Agents SDK. However, the PR includes an accidentally committed file that must be removed before merging.
Review Categories
- Blocking Issue:
install.lognpm output file must be removed from the PR - Minor Consistency: Relative link format differs from existing documentation patterns (uses trailing slash instead of
.mdextension)
Once the install.log file is removed, this PR should be good to merge. Great work on the comprehensive coverage of Kiro, Claude Code, Cursor, and generic MCP integration!

Suggestion: For consistency with other documentation files in this repo, consider using the .md extension in relative links.
The existing docs use patterns like ../concepts/tools/custom-tools.md rather than ../concepts/tools/custom-tools/. While both work in Astro, using .md maintains consistency with the rest of the codebase.

/strands can you update this content to reference how to use llms.txt, and the mcp server shipped with strands: https://github.com/strands-agents/mcp-server We should not talk about writing custom steering files, and instead should point to our sources of truth for agentic content |

- Add comprehensive llms.txt section explaining the standard - Include Strands llms.txt endpoints table - Add MCP server features (smart search, section browsing) - Add quick installation links for Kiro, Cursor, VS Code - Add configurations for Q Developer CLI, VS Code, Cline - Update related resources with llms.txt links - Remove duplicate configuration sections

Assessment: Request Changes
The documentation content has been updated well with llms.txt and MCP server information. However, there are three log files that must be removed before merging.
Blocking Issues
install.log- npm install output (8 lines)build_output.log- build output (1244 lines)test_output.log- test output showing "vitest: not found" (5 lines)
To fix:
git rm install.log build_output.log test_output.log
git commit --amend --no-edit
git push --force-with-leaseThe guide content itself looks comprehensive with good coverage of llms.txt integration, MCP server features, and tool-specific configurations.
