+Fix max_tokens limits for OpenRouter and Groq models

+- Add special handling in config-manager.js for custom OpenRouter models to use a conservative default of 32,768 max_tokens
+- Update qwen/qwen-turbo model max_tokens from 1,000,000 to 32,768 to match OpenRouter's actual limits
+- Fix moonshotai/kimi-k2-instruct max_tokens to 16,384 to match Groq's actual limit (fixes #1028)
+- This prevents "maximum context length exceeded" errors when using OpenRouter models not in our supported models list

 # task-master-ai
 
+## 0.22.0-rc.0
+
+### Minor Changes
+
+- [#1032](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/pull/1032) [`4423119`](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/commit/4423119a5ec53958c9dffa8bf564da8be7a2827d) Thanks [@Crunchyman-ralph](https://github.com/Crunchyman-ralph)! - Add comprehensive Kiro IDE integration with autonomous task management hooks
+  - **Kiro Profile**: Added full support for Kiro IDE with automatic installation of 7 Taskmaster agent hooks
+  - **Hook-Driven Workflow**: Introduced natural language automation hooks that eliminate manual task status updates
+  - **Automatic Hook Installation**: Hooks are now automatically copied to `.kiro/hooks/` when running `task-master rules add kiro`
+  - **Language-Agnostic Support**: All hooks support multiple programming languages (JS, Python, Go, Rust, Java, etc.)
+  - **Frontmatter Transformation**: Kiro rules use simplified `inclusion: always` format instead of Cursor's complex frontmatter
+  - **Special Rule**: Added `taskmaster_hooks_workflow.md` that guides AI assistants to prefer hook-driven completion
+
+  Key hooks included:
+  - Task Dependency Auto-Progression: Automatically starts tasks when dependencies complete
+  - Code Change Task Tracker: Updates task progress as you save files
+  - Test Success Task Completer: Marks tasks done when tests pass
+  - Daily Standup Assistant: Provides personalized task status summaries
+  - PR Readiness Checker: Validates task completion before creating pull requests
+  - Complexity Analyzer: Auto-expands complex tasks into manageable subtasks
+  - Git Commit Task Linker: Links commits to tasks for better traceability
+
+  This creates a truly autonomous development workflow where task management happens naturally as you code!
