Use Kimi Code from Claude Code for autonomous delegation, tool-constrained repository analysis, managed background jobs, and private local usage reporting.
Run these commands in Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add chriswburke/kimi-claude-code-plugin
/plugin install kimi@model-companions-kimi
/reload-plugins
To work on the plugin itself, clone the repository and add it from the checkout with /plugin marketplace add ./ instead.
Kimi requires Git, Node.js 18.18 or newer, Claude Code 2.1.169 or newer, and Kimi Code 0.29.0 or newer. Continuous integration covers Linux and macOS. Windows is untested; run the plugin under WSL there. Authenticate the Kimi CLI with kimi login, then verify the installation without model inference:
/kimi:setup
/kimi:models
Start with a request that cannot modify the checkout:
/kimi:explore --profile stable Where is authentication enforced?
/kimi:ask can modify files. Run it only in a checkout you trust.
