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

1
1

Install the kimi CLI

Moonshot’s Kimi Code runs as a first-class AI terminal once the `kimi` command is on your machine.

2
2

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

The manual way vs. the 1DevTool way

The Hard Way

# Kimi Code lives outside the workspace
# Its transcripts are not scanned or resumable
# Skills and headless sends do not reach it
# Design and MCP surfaces cannot target it
# It is an agent you use, not one you orchestrate

The 1DevTool Way

Install the kimi CLI; every picker lists it.
Model chips, slash commands and skills all work.
Resume Kimi sessions and read the transcripts.
Design, Prototype and MCP can target it.
