Enable Kiro Start fullscreen and route repo-scale work to GPT-5.6 1M context

Kiro 2.22.1 adds /fullscreen chat for TUI and Lite (V2/V3), a redesigned V3 /sessions dashboard, and 1M-token GPT-5.6 Sol/Terra/Luna windows. Turn on Start fullscreen, resume from the new session list, and send repo-scale work in one request—rates double above 272K tokens.

Why this loop

Kiro v2.22.1 changes how long interactive work should run. Fullscreen chat (/fullscreen) moves the current TUI or Lite conversation (V2 and V3) to a dedicated terminal screen with its own scrollable view, mouse/touchpad/keyboard scroll, and click-drag copy, independent of shell history; /fullscreen again returns inline. Persist that via /settings → Display → Start fullscreen. The V3 /sessions dashboard is now a flat last-use list with search, filter, sort, and grouping split from the list, Tab between controls and results, sort by last use, session name, or message count, and a remembered selection—so resume the existing long session instead of spawning another. GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna now support a 1M-token window (up from 272K) in Kiro IDE, CLI, and Web, so repository-scale refactors, long documents, and multi-turn agent histories can stay in one request. Credits follow a two-tier model: ≤272K at Sol 4.4x / Terra 2.2x / Luna 1.1x; above 272K those rates double. Prefer the short tier unless the extra context is required; 1M context is rolling out gradually.

Proposed actions

  1. In a Kiro interactive TUI or Lite session, type /fullscreen to move this conversation to a dedicated terminal screen with independent scrolling and click-drag copy; type /fullscreen again to return inline.
  2. In Kiro, type /settings, choose Display, and turn on Start fullscreen so future interactive TUI sessions launch in fullscreen.
  3. In Kiro V3, type /sessions, press Tab to move between the separated search/filter/sort/grouping controls and the session list, sort by last use, session name, or message count, and resume the remembered selection instead of starting a new session.
  4. For repository-scale refactors, end-to-end debugging, or long-horizon agent work in Kiro IDE, CLI, or Web, select GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, or Luna so the full codebase and multi-turn history fit in one 1M-token request without chunking.
  5. Before sending a GPT-5.6 Sol/Terra/Luna request, keep context at or below 272K tokens to bill at Sol 4.4x / Terra 2.2x / Luna 1.1x; only exceed 272K when 1M context is required, because those multipliers double above that tier.

2.22.1 Sep 17, 2026 Fullscreen Chat and Streamlined Sessions Expand chat to a dedicated terminal screen, browse a streamlined V3 session dashboard, and keep long sessions running reliably. This release adds fullscreen chat for interactive TUI and Lite sessions, streamlines the V3 session dashboard, and improves reliability during long-running work. Fullscreen chat Type /fullscreen to move the current conversation to a dedicated terminal screen with its own scrollable view, independent of your shell history. Type /fullscreen again to return inline. Fullscreen is available in interactive TUI and Lite sessions on both V2 and V3. Scroll with your mouse, touchpad, or keyboard, and click and drag to copy selected text. To start future interactive TUI sessions in fullscreen, open /settings , choose Display , and turn on Start fullscreen . Learn more -> Streamlined session dashboard (V3) /sessions has been redesigned: search, filter, sort, and grouping controls are now separated from the session list. It opens as a flat list ordered by last use, supports sorting by last use, session name, or message count, and remembers your selection. Use Tab to move between the controls and results.
