New `kigi import-kimi` (with --dry-run) plus a one-time welcome-screen
hint when ~/.kimi/config.toml is present and unimported.
- Sources: ~/.kimi/config.toml (default_model, [models.*], [providers.*])
and ~/.kimi/mcp.json ({"mcpServers": ...} — parsed by the existing
McpConfig machinery). Shapes ported from kimi-cli 1.49.0 config.py with
citations.
- Strictly read-only over ~/.kimi: plain reads only; the test suite pins
byte-identical contents AND unchanged mtimes across scan+apply. Keyring
credentials are never imported; KIMI_SHARE_DIR / any KIMI_* env var is
never consulted (official dir hardcoded to ~/.kimi).
- Mapping: MCP servers merge into kigi [mcp_servers.*] without clobbering
existing names; models on non-built-in providers become kigi [model.*]
custom entries (base_url + api_key + context_window); providers that
duplicate kigi's built-in Kimi/Moonshot platforms are skipped with a
note; default_model maps to the imported alias or the managed catalog
key and never overwrites an existing default.
- One-time marker ~/.kigi/kimi_import_done (claude-import convention);
the startup hint and re-runs no-op once set. api_key values flow only
into the user's own config.toml and are redacted in every summary.
Verified end-to-end with the real binary in a sandboxed home: dry-run,
apply, `kigi mcp list` shows both imported servers, second run no-ops,
~/.kimi mtimes unchanged. 8 unit tests + CLI parse test.
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.
Providers and API keys
Kigi talks to a fixed three-platform registry:
| Platform id | Base URL | Auth |
|---|---|---|
kimi-code |
https://api.kimi.com/coding/v1 |
Kimi Code subscription OAuth (kigi login) |
moonshot-cn |
https://api.moonshot.cn/v1 |
Moonshot open-platform API key |
moonshot-ai |
https://api.moonshot.ai/v1 |
Moonshot open-platform API key |
Moonshot API keys come from the environment or ~/.kigi/config.toml
(environment wins; values are never logged):
export KIGI_MOONSHOT_API_KEY=sk-... # applies to both open platforms
export KIGI_MOONSHOT_CN_API_KEY=sk-... # platform-scoped, beats the generic name
export KIGI_MOONSHOT_AI_API_KEY=sk-...
# ~/.kigi/config.toml
[platforms.moonshot-cn]
api_key = "sk-..."
[platforms.moonshot-ai]
api_key = "sk-..."
On login and on startup Kigi syncs each configured platform's model list
from GET {base}/models and shows the merged catalog in the model picker
(catalog keys are {platform_id}/{model_id}). If the sync fails, the last
cached catalog is used; with no cache, a small built-in fallback list
applies. Model selection resolves as
--model CLI flag > KIGI_DEFAULT_MODEL > [models] default in
config.toml > server-delivered list > built-in fallback.
KIGI_CODE_BASE_URL re-points the subscription platform (useful for
testing); KIGI_MOONSHOT_CN_BASE_URL / KIGI_MOONSHOT_AI_BASE_URL are the
equivalent dev/test overrides for the open platforms.
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.
