Usage

Once installed, the kimi engine is automatically available. The plugin defaults to:

• Model: kimi-for-coding (Kimi's coding-optimized model)

Minimal configuration in takopi.toml:

[engines.kimi]
# Uses "kimi-for-coding" by default

Enable auto-approval (yolo mode):

[engines.kimi]
yolo = true  # Auto-approve all actions

Full configuration options:

[engines.kimi]
model = "kimi-for-coding"  # Or "kimi-k2", etc.
allowed_tools = ["Bash", "Read", "Edit", "Write"]
yolo = true  # Auto-approve all actions

Verification

Verify the plugin is installed:

# Check available engines
uv run python -c "from takopi.engines import list_backend_ids; print(list_backend_ids())"
# ['claude', 'codex', 'kimi', 'opencode', 'pi']
