Device Authentication Bridge for Kimi CLI - Reusable module for OAuth token retrieval

🌙 Kimi Device Authentication Bridge

A reusable Python module for integrating Kimi Code CLI OAuth authentication into any application. No more hardcoded API keys - just seamless device authentication!

✨ Features

• 🔐 OAuth Token Retrieval - Reads tokens from Kimi CLI's secure storage
• 🔄 Auto-Refresh - Handles token expiration automatically
• 🚀 Zero Config - Works out of the box with existing Kimi CLI installations
• 🛡️ Secure - Never stores credentials, only reads from Kimi's secure storage
• 🔌 Framework Agnostic - Use with Flask, FastAPI, Django, or any Python app
• 📦 Easy Integration - Simple API, minimal setup required

🎯 Use Cases

This bridge solves 2 major problems:

1. 🔑 No Hardcoded API Keys - Stop committing secrets to git
2. 👥 User-Friendly - End users just run kimi login, no manual key management

Perfect for:

• AI-powered developer tools
• Coding assistants
• CLI applications
• Web applications needing LLM access
• Any tool that wants to leverage Kimi's API without exposing keys

📦 Installation

pip install kimi-auth-bridge

Or install from source:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/kimi-device-auth-bridge.git
cd kimi-device-auth-bridge
pip install -e .

🚀 Quick Start

Basic Usage

from kimi_auth_bridge import KimiAuthBridge

# Initialize the bridge
bridge = KimiAuthBridge()

# Check if user is authenticated
if bridge.is_authenticated():
    # Get the access token
    token = bridge.get_access_token()
    print(f"Token: {token[:20]}...")
    
    # Use with any HTTP client
    import requests
    response = requests.post(
        "https://api.kimi.com/coding/v1/chat/completions",
        headers={
            "Authorization": f"Bearer {token}",
            "User-Agent": bridge.get_user_agent()
        },
        json={
            "model": "kimi-for-coding",
            "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
        }
    )
else:
    print("Please run 'kimi login' first")

Async Support

import asyncio
from kimi_auth_bridge import AsyncKimiAuthBridge

async def main():
    bridge = AsyncKimiAuthBridge()
    
    if await bridge.is_authenticated():
        token = await bridge.get_access_token()
        # Use token with async HTTP client...
        print(f"Got token: {token[:20]}...")

asyncio.run(main())

Web Framework Integration

Flask Example

from flask import Flask, jsonify
from kimi_auth_bridge import KimiAuthBridge

app = Flask(__name__)
bridge = KimiAuthBridge()

@app.route('/api/kimi/status')
def kimi_status():
    return jsonify({
        'authenticated': bridge.is_authenticated(),
        'api_base': bridge.get_api_base(),
        'model': bridge.get_default_model()
    })

@app.route('/api/kimi/token')
def kimi_token():
    if not bridge.is_authenticated():
        return jsonify({'error': 'Not authenticated'}), 401
    
    return jsonify({
        'token_preview': bridge.get_token_preview(),
        'api_base': bridge.get_api_base()
    })

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

FastAPI Example

from fastapi import FastAPI, HTTPException
from kimi_auth_bridge import KimiAuthBridge

app = FastAPI()
bridge = KimiAuthBridge()

@app.get('/api/kimi/status')
async def kimi_status():
    return {
        'authenticated': bridge.is_authenticated(),
        'api_base': bridge.get_api_base(),
        'model': bridge.get_default_model()
    }

@app.get('/api/kimi/token')
async def kimi_token():
    if not bridge.is_authenticated():
        raise HTTPException(status_code=401, detail='Not authenticated')
    
    return {
        'token': bridge.get_access_token(),
        'api_base': bridge.get_api_base()
    }

Special thanks to the incredible team at Moonshot AI for developing this brilliant authentication system!

Why Moonshot's Approach is Genius 🧠

The Kimi CLI authentication system represents a security breakthrough in AI API access:

• 🔑 Dynamic Token Generation - Fresh tokens on every login, no static keys
• 🛡️ Device-Bound Security - Tokens only work on authenticated devices
• 🌐 Browser-Verified - Authentication happens through kimi.com website
• 🔒 No Hardcoded Secrets - Zero risk of API keys in git repositories
• ✌️ Multi-Factor by Design - Combines device + browser + OAuth
• 🔄 Automatic Rotation - Seamless token refresh without user intervention

This is how all AI API authentication should work! Hats off to the Moonshot team for prioritizing security AND user experience.

• Built for Kimi Code CLI
• Thanks to the Moonshot AI team for the excellent API and revolutionary auth system
