Original: I submitted a real PR to a Brazilian open source project — live, using AI as my right hand

Short summary

Developer demonstrated live AI-assisted open source contribution at AWS Community Day Brasília, using Kiro to fork ScanAPI, fix a Docker hash dependency bug, and submit a production PR—emphasizing that AI accelerates execution while technical responsibility remains human.

  • •Live workshop showed how Kiro AI agent autonomously handled open source contribution workflow in ~5 minutes
  • •Real-world fix: Docker hash validation bug in ScanAPI caused by outdated pip/setuptools; Kiro updated Dockerfile, configured GitHub Actions and Dependabot
  • •Core principle: delegate execution to AI but maintain human oversight—AI is the arm, human is the brain

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
