Kimi

kimi-plugin-cc

Use Kimi from inside Claude Code for code reviews or to delegate tasks to Kimi.

This plugin is for Claude Code users who want an easy way to start using Kimi from the workflow they already have.

Based on openai/codex-plugin-cc — This project is heavily inspired by and based on the architecture and design of the Codex plugin for Claude Code.

What You Get

• /kimi:review for a normal read-only Kimi code review
• /kimi:adversarial-review for a security-focused challenge review
• /kimi:rescue, /kimi:status, /kimi:result, and /kimi:cancel to delegate work and manage background jobs

---

Requirements

• Kimi CLI (kimi command available in PATH)
  • Install from: https://github.com/moonshot-ai/kimi-cli
  • Login with: kimi login
• Node.js 18 or later

---

Install

Add the marketplace in Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add kkk0913/kimi-plugin-cc

Install the plugin:

/plugin install kimi@kimi-plugin-cc

Reload plugins.

Then run:

/kimi:setup will tell you whether Kimi is ready.

If Kimi CLI is installed but not logged in yet, run:

!kimi login

After install, you should see:

• the slash commands listed below
• the kimi:kimi-rescue subagent in /agents

One simple first run is:

/kimi:review --background
/kimi:status
/kimi:result

---

Usage

/kimi:review

Runs a Kimi code review on your current work.

Note: Code review especially for multi-file changes might take a while. It's generally recommended to run it in the background.

Use it when you want:

• a review of your current uncommitted changes
• a review of your branch compared to a base branch like main

Use --base <ref> for branch review. It also supports --background.

Examples:

/kimi:review
/kimi:review --base main
/kimi:review --background

This command is read-only and will not perform any changes.

/kimi:adversarial-review

Runs a security-focused review that looks for vulnerabilities, injection risks, data leaks, race conditions, and dangerous patterns.

It uses the same review target selection as /kimi:review, including --base <ref> for branch review. It also supports --background.

Use it when you want:

• a security review before shipping
• review focused on vulnerabilities, injection risks, data leaks
• pressure-testing around specific risk areas like auth, data loss, race conditions, or reliability

Examples:

/kimi:adversarial-review
/kimi:adversarial-review --base main
/kimi:adversarial-review --background

This command is read-only. It does not fix code.

/kimi:rescue

Hands a task to Kimi through the kimi:kimi-rescue subagent.

Use it when you want Kimi to:

• investigate a bug
• try a fix
• continue a previous Kimi task

It supports --background. Depending on the task, it's generally recommended to run in the background.

Examples:

/kimi:rescue investigate why the tests started failing
/kimi:rescue fix the failing test with the smallest safe patch
/kimi:rescue --background investigate the regression

/kimi:status

Shows running and recent Kimi jobs for the current repository.

Examples:

/kimi:status
/kimi:status <job-id>

/kimi:result

Shows the final stored Kimi output for a finished job.

Examples:

/kimi:result
/kimi:result <job-id>

/kimi:cancel

Cancels an active background Kimi job.

Examples:

/kimi:cancel
/kimi:cancel <job-id>

/kimi:setup

Checks whether Kimi CLI is installed and authenticated.

Architecture

The plugin uses a broker-based architecture:

1. Broker (app-server-broker.mjs): A long-lived process that maintains a single kimi --wire subprocess
2. Unix Socket: Commands communicate with the broker via JSON-RPC over Unix socket
3. Wire Protocol: The broker communicates with Kimi CLI via stdin/stdout using the Wire protocol

This design allows:

• Reusing the same Kimi process across multiple commands
• Efficient background task management
• Streaming event support
