Kiro does not seem to read README automatically. I spun up kiro-cli and 
gave it this prompt: "Write "Hello World" before invoking the init 
process. Then create a descriptive git commit for the change.". No 
Assisted-by: tag, so it did not properly read the README.

I tried the same with an AGENTS.md file present that contains "@README" 
and it gave me effectively the same result. Same for a symlink from 
AGENTS.md to README.

I think it just never really jumped to the conclusion that it should 
read further than just the AGENTS.md file and also ingest the rst, 
effectively ignoring the section's instructions. Or maybe it actually 
reads the .rst and ignores its contents? At least it does read it 
according to strace, even without an AGENTS.md file.

Let me file a bug report with Kiro.
