Kane CLI Hack Day

About the Challenge

A one-day, in-person hackathon for developers who build with AI coding agents — and want to see what happens when you put a real verification layer next to them.

50 builders. One room in San Francisco. $3,000 in prizes. Hosted by TestMu AI, in partnership with dev.to.

AI coding agents have changed how software gets written. Features ship from prompts. Bugs get fixed in seconds. But one part of the loop never closed: when the agent ships something, someone still has to open a browser and click through to see if it actually works.

Kane CLI was built for that gap. It's a plain-English browser automation tool that runs from your terminal. One command, no selectors, no framework. It opens a real local browser, runs the flow you describe, and returns a pass or fail with a video trace. It works as a developer utility. It also works as a tool that any AI coding agent can call directly.

Kiro is the natural partner for it. AWS's agentic IDE was built around spec-driven development, you describe what the app should do, Kiro generates the tasks and the code with full traceability back to the spec. The thing that's been missing is a way to verify the generated code actually behaves the way the spec said it should. Kane CLI is that piece. Specs describe intended behavior. Kane proves whether the behavior matches.

We want to see what builders do when you put those two together.

This hack day is an invitation: bring a problem worth solving, build it in Kiro, verify it with Kane CLI, and ship something real in a single day. The room is curated, we're keeping it to fifty serious builders so the conversation in person is as good as the code on screen.
