AI coding agents often over-engineer bug fixes by modifying unrelated code, adding unnecessary defensive checks, and drifting from the original intent. Kiro addresses this with a methodology called property-aware code evolution, which formalizes a bug condition (C) defining exactly when a bug triggers, a postcondition (P)
