* fix(agent-core): recover from context overflow 413 - track provider-observed effective context limit after overflow - compact with the reduced limit before retrying the turn - treat large plain 413 responses as recoverable context overflow - add CLI patch changeset * feat(managed-kimi-code): support Anthropic-compatible protocol - switch managed provider to anthropic when models declare anthropic protocol - add base64 video content blocks to the kosong anthropic provider - downgrade unsupported media parts to text placeholders by capability - pass prompt cache key as Anthropic metadata.user_id for session affinity * feat(agent-core): add protocol/type to request and video upload telemetry - turn_started now carries `type` (configured provider wire type) and `protocol` (effective transport, i.e. alias.protocol ?? provider.type) - new video_upload event reports mime type, size, latency and success/failure, plus type/protocol/model context - ResolvedRuntimeProvider gains `type` and `protocol` fields |

The Starting Point for Next-Gen Agents
What is Kimi Code CLI
Kimi Code CLI is an AI coding agent that runs in your terminal. It can read and edit code, run shell commands, search files, fetch web pages, and choose the next step based on the feedback it receives. It works out of the box with Moonshot AI's Kimi models and can also be configured to use other compatible providers.
Install
The recommended install path is the official script. It does not require Node.js to be installed first.
- macOS / Linux:
curl -fsSL https://code.kimi.com/kimi-code/install.sh | bash
- Windows (PowerShell):
irm https://code.kimi.com/kimi-code/install.ps1 | iex
On Windows, install Git for Windows before first launch because Kimi Code CLI uses the bundled Git Bash as its shell environment. If Git Bash is installed in a custom location, set
KIMI_SHELL_PATHto the absolute path ofbash.exe.
Then run it with a new Terminal session:
kimi --version
Alternative: npm
If you prefer npm, use Node.js 22.19.0 or later:
npm install -g @moonshot-ai/kimi-code
Or with pnpm:
pnpm add -g @moonshot-ai/kimi-code
For upgrade and uninstall instructions, see the Getting Started guide.
Quick Start
Open a project and start the interactive UI:
cd your-project
kimi
On first launch, run /login inside Kimi Code CLI and choose either Kimi Code OAuth or a Kimi Platform API key. After login, try a first task:
Take a look at this project and explain the main directories.
Key Features
- Single-binary distribution. Install with one command — no Node.js setup, no PATH gymnastics, no global module conflicts.
- Blazing-fast startup. The TUI is ready in milliseconds, so opening a session never feels heavy.
- Polished TUI. A carefully tuned interface designed for long, focused agent sessions.
- Video input. Drop a screen recording or demo clip into the chat — let the agent watch instead of typing out what's hard to describe in words.
- AI-native MCP configuration. Add, edit, and authenticate Model Context Protocol servers conversationally via
/mcp-config— no hand-editing JSON. - Subagents for focused, parallel work. Dispatch built-in
coder,explore, andplansubagents in isolated context windows; the main conversation stays clean. - Lifecycle hooks. Run local commands at key points — gate risky tool calls, audit decisions, fire desktop notifications, wire into your own automation.
