Input method not recognized on macOS 27.0 — CodeWhisperer does not appear in Input Sources

[noripi10]

Checks

• I have searched github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues and there are no duplicates of my issue
• I have run q doctor in the affected terminal session
• I have run q restart and replicated the issue again

Operating system

macOS 27.0.0 (26A428)

Expected behaviour

Description

On macOS 27.0, kiro-cli doctor reports "Input method is not running",
and the input method cannot be enabled because it never appears
in System Settings > Keyboard > Input Sources.

Environment

• macOS: 27.0 (Build 26A428)
• Terminal: Ghostty
• kiro-cli version: 2.24.0

Doctor output

✘ Input Method: Input method is not running
Attempting to fix automatically...
Re-running check...
✘ Input Method: Input method is not running

Steps tried

1. Ran kiro-cli integrations install input-method.
   System Settings > Keyboard opens, but no Kiro / CodeWhisperer
   input source is available to add.
2. Verified the symlink exists and points to a valid path:
   ~/Library/Input Methods/CodeWhispererInputMethod.app
   -> /Applications/Kiro CLI.app/Contents/Helpers/CodeWhispererInputMethod.app
   The target exists (contains Contents).
3. Logged out and logged back in.
4. Checked Input Sources > "+" > "Others":
   CodeWhisperer is still not listed.

Expected behavior

CodeWhisperer input method appears in Input Sources and
kiro-cli doctor passes.

Actual behavior

The input method is never registered by macOS,
so autocomplete cannot work.

Notes

All files appear to be in place, so this looks like a
compatibility issue with macOS 27's input method registration.

Actual behaviour

kiro-cli doctor
