What it does

Kimi Code is an AI programming agent and command-line tool from Moonshot AI, presented on its page as running with the Kimi K3 model. The page says it now covers the desktop, the CLI and IDE plugins, so it can fit different development workflows. In the sample session shown on the page, the assistant describes itself as an AI coding assistant that runs on your computer. It can write and change code, read and analyze an existing codebase, run commands such as tests, builds and scripts and check the results, and search the web or read web pages for current information. Kimi Code is used through Kimi Code Plan subscriptions. The page says higher-tier plans can use the K3 model and that buying a plan also brings other Kimi membership benefits. Prices are not shown on this page.
