Kimi Agent Module API

The stable, host-independent contracts for building Kimi application modules: separately installed packages that add commands, LLM tools, background jobs, event handlers, per-guild settings, and durable data to a Kimi deployment.

This package contains no bot runtime, Discord client, database implementation, or module loader. It exports:

• ModuleSpec, ModuleLoadContext, ModuleRuntimeContext: the declaration a module publishes and the two contexts the host hands it.
• kimi_agent_module_api.contracts: every runtime port as a typing.Protocol (storage, scheduler, events, Discord actions, interactions, HTTP, services, trust, proposals, health) plus the validators the host runs at preflight.
• kimi_agent_module_api.events: the normalized discord.* event payloads.
• kimi_agent_module_api.testing: a fake for every port, load_context() for exercising create(), and MemoryStorage (install the testing extra) so a module can unit test itself with only this package installed.

A module exposes a ModuleSpec through the kimi_agent.modules entry-point group:

[project]
dependencies = ["kimi-agent-module-api>=2,<3"]

[project.entry-points."kimi_agent.modules"]
my_module = "my_module_package:SPEC"

The source must pin the API contract it implements when constructing the specification:

from kimi_agent_module_api import ModuleSpec

SPEC = ModuleSpec(
    name="my_module",
    version="0.1.0",
    create=create,
    api_version=2,
)

api_version is a required keyword. Keep it as a literal rather than deriving it from the installed SDK's MODULE_API_VERSION; unchanged module source must not silently claim compatibility merely because it was rebuilt with a newer SDK.

The module guide documents installation, declarations, lifecycle, and every runtime port. The reference module is a complete, commented example that exercises most ports; start there.

Modules using guild-scoped live command replacement through InteractionRouter.replace_guild_commands() should require the host capability discord.guild_commands.v1.

The SDK provides typed modal forms and a narrow Components V2 layout model. Once a response uses that layout model, Discord requires every later edit of the same message to remain a layout. Modules using them should require discord.modals.v1 and/or discord.components_v2.v1.

Message-deletion events include cached author classification: MessageDeleteEvent.author_is_bot and MessageBulkDeleteEvent.bot_message_ids. The values remain unknown for messages that were absent from Discord's cache.

SDK 2.1 adds ModuleToolContext.trigger_discord_message_id. Mention-path tool calls receive the exact source Discord message snowflake; other surfaces receive None. Modules that act on a user's source message should require kimi-agent-module-api>=2.1,<3, reject None, fetch that exact message through ctx.discord, and verify its author before acting.

Modules use namespaced guild documents and the physical table names returned by ctx.storage.table().

Testing the SDK

From this package directory, run its tests without installing the Kimi application:

uv run --isolated --group test python -m pytest -q
