Kimi Code as a Built-In AI Agent
Launch Moonshot's Kimi Code as a first-class AI agent in 1DevTool — same picker, model chips, skills, headless sends, resume, and team delegation as Claude, Codex, and Grok. Install the kimi CLI and open it from Add Terminal, Change AI, Vibe Coder, or any other agent surface.

Why You Need This
How this feature boosts your daily productivity
A new coding CLI only becomes daily-driver material when it sits in the same launcher as the agents you already trust. Without built-in support you paste kimi into a bare shell and lose resume, skills, model chips, and orchestration. First-class Kimi Code support removes that tax so you can evaluate Moonshot on equal footing with Claude and Codex.
How It Works
Get started in 4 simple steps
Install the kimi CLI
Moonshot’s Kimi Code runs as a first-class AI terminal once the `kimi` command is on your machine.
Open it from any picker
Add Terminal, Change AI, Vibe Coder and every other agent picker list Kimi alongside your existing agents.
Work with it normally
Model chips, slash commands, skills, headless sends and team delegation all work the same way they do for your other agents.
Resume and target it
Past Kimi sessions reopen from the Resume panel, Sub-agent History and the session scanners read Kimi transcripts, and the Design, Prototype and MCP surfaces can target Kimi when it is installed.
Without 1DevTool
