The feature automatically creates checkpoint markers as the AI modifies code, enabling risk-free experimentation and iteration. Developers can restore previous states with a single click, rolling back file modifications made by Kiro after that checkpoint. This capability encourages more ambitious refactoring and exploration by providing a safety net, though it only reverts changes made by Kiro in the current session and should complement, not replace, traditional version control systems. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
