Hard fork of xai-org/grok-build (Apache-2.0) re-targeted as Kigi, an
unofficial Kimi Code CLI community build.
Rename & identity
- 72 xai-*/xai-grok-* crates -> kigi-* (explicit: xai-grok-pager-bin ->
kigi-bin [binary `kigi`], xai-grok-pager -> kigi-tui; rest mechanical);
ptyctl, ptyctl-cli, third_party/ unchanged; proto package
xai.grok.tools.v1 -> kigi.tools.v1
- Config home ~/.kigi (KIGI_SHARE_DIR override), env prefix GROK_* ->
KIGI_*, `kigi --version` carries the unofficial-community-build notice
- clap identity, help text, startup banner, prompt templates rebranded
(templates re-encrypted)
Deletions (PRD removal list #5/#6/#7/#9/#10)
- voice input (xai-grok-voice) and all TUI wiring
- telemetry: Mixpanel client, external OTel stream, Sentry, OTLP layers,
trace/GCS/S3 upload queues (kigi-file-utils halved), workspace upload
module & dc_log, heap-profile uploader, auth-diagnostics uploader,
session-analytics halves of feedback; local zero-egress observability
preserved in new kigi-log crate (unified log, --debug firehose,
subsystem file logs, opt-in instrumentation)
- announcements (crate, remote-settings fields, TUI surfaces)
- plugin marketplace (crate, sources/browse/CTA/extensions-modal tab);
direct plugin install/uninstall/update via kigi-agent git_install kept
- relay/gateway/assets endpoints and features (agent relay, headless
relay transport, gateway bridge, LeaderEnvUrls); leader IPC socket now
~/.kigi/leader.sock + KIGI_LEADER_SOCKET, no ws-url derivation
- functional types rehomed instead of deleted: PermissionMode ->
kigi-config-types, McpInitStrategy -> kigi-mcp, PrCreationSource ->
session signals, TerminalDiagnostics -> kigi-pager-render, agent_id ->
shell util
Endpoints
- kigi-env rewritten: single production KigiEndpoints {coding_api_base_url
https://api.kimi.com/coding/v1 (KIGI_CODE_BASE_URL), oauth_host
https://auth.kimi.com (KIGI_OAUTH_HOST), update_base_url (GitHub
Releases API), upgrade_page_url}; GrokBuildEnvironment enum deleted
Toolchain & workspace hygiene
- Rust 1.97.0 pinned; edition 2024; full cargo update; git2 hoisted to
workspace at 0.21 (Option->Result API migration), quick-xml 0.41
- Root Cargo.toml hand-maintained (PRD §8.1): version 0.1.0 inherited by
all members, members sorted, unused deps pruned
- cargo-deny advisories gate (deny.toml with documented transitive
exceptions); CI workflow (check/clippy/fmt/deny/test, macOS+Linux)
- cross-crate test seams re-gated behind `test-support` cargo feature;
insta snapshot baselines renamed to the kigi_tui prefix
- clippy --workspace --all-targets: zero warnings; fmt clean
Fixes surfaced by the port
- updater probe/installer divergence (bin/kigi vs bin/grok symlink set)
- idle model-metadata refresh dead under KIGI_CODE_BASE_URL override
(new is_effective_coding_endpoint_url, loopback+override aware)
- macOS symlinked-TMPDIR fixture canonicalization (foreign_sessions,
fast-worktree); RSS measurement tests serialized via serial_test
Docs & legal (Apache §4)
- NOTICE added (upstream attribution + change statement); THIRD-PARTY
notices sustained; kigi-tools ported-code notices extended; README,
CONTRIBUTING, SECURITY, AGENTS.md rewritten
Out of scope for M0 (tracked): Kimi auth/inference (M1), search/fetch,
command parity, config import (M2), Computer Hub excision & final
brand-token sweep (M2), distribution & self-update rewrite (M3).
2.2 KiB
Kigi
Kigi (kigi) is an unofficial Kimi Code CLI community build — a
terminal-based AI coding agent based on the Apache-2.0 sources of
xai-org/grok-build, re-targeted at
the Kimi Code subscription API and the Moonshot open platform.
It runs as a full-screen TUI that understands your codebase, edits files, executes shell commands, and manages long-running tasks — interactively, headlessly for scripting/CI, or embedded in editors via the Agent Client Protocol (ACP).
Kigi is not affiliated with Moonshot AI or xAI. It coexists with the official
kimi CLI on the same machine: independent binary name, independent config
directory (~/.kigi), independent keyring credentials, and a KIGI_*
environment-variable namespace. Nothing the official client installs or
stores is touched.
Status
0.1.0 — milestone M0 (compilable skeleton) complete:
- 62 workspace crates renamed to the
kigi-*namespace; brand and env-var namespaces separated from upstream. - Telemetry, voice input, announcements, plugin marketplace, and relay/gateway remote services removed. Kigi is zero-telemetry: the only outbound connections are the inference/auth APIs you configure, GitHub Releases for updates, and MCP servers you add.
- Toolchain Rust 1.97.0;
cargo check/clippy --workspace --all-targetsclean;cargo deny check advisoriesgate in place.
Authentication and inference against Kimi Code (milestone M1), the compatibility surface (M2), and release distribution (M3) are in progress.
Building from source
rustup toolchain install 1.97.0
cargo build --profile release-dist -p kigi-bin
./target/release-dist/kigi --version
protoc is invoked through the vendored dotslash
launcher at bin/protoc; install dotslash (brew install dotslash or
cargo install dotslash) if it is not already on your PATH.
