What is Kimi Code?

Kimi Code is an AI coding agent built by Moonshot AI on top of the Kimi models, available in three forms: CLI, desktop app, and IDE plugin. It can read and modify code, execute shell commands, search files, and fetch web pages, then autonomously decide its next step based on the execution results. Its workflow emphasizes a Plan-first approach: it presents a reviewable execution plan before taking action. The terminal form, Kimi Code CLI, provides a TUI designed for long sessions, single-binary installation, video input, conversational MCP configuration, a plugin and skill marketplace, parallel sub-agents, and lifecycle Hooks, and it can connect to editors such as Zed and JetBrains via the ACP protocol. The desktop app provides project and session workspaces, approval cards, a built-in browser preview, and a diff panel. The CLI is open-sourced under the MIT license, while the models and cloud services are billed separately through the Kimi membership system. Official website: https://www.kimi.ai/code/zh-hans GitHub: https://github.com/MoonshotAI/kimi-code With the API service provided by Interface AI, you can call the world’s leading large models in Kimi Code and seamlessly integrate them into your Kimi Code workflow. Below, we use Kimi Code Desktop as an example to demonstrate the integration process.
