One-page cheat sheet maps Kiro, Claude Code, Codex and Cursor feature names

Paul Colmer published a one-page cheat sheet mapping how Kiro, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex and Cursor name the same concepts: Steering files vs CLAUDE.md vs AGENTS.md vs Cursor Rules, subagents, skills, hooks, MCP servers, slash commands, approval modes, and more — 13 concepts side by side with file paths and CLI/IDE/cloud entry points.

Key takeaway: only Kiro ships a full spec-driven workflow out of the box; the others rely on plan mode. All names were checked against official docs this week, with a caveat that these tools change fast. Handy 'translator' for developers juggling multiple AI coding tools.
