Kimi Code

Minor Changes #4159 0a3a2fb Thanks @RealKai42! - Add an opt-in NotifyUser progress update feature (off by default): new sessions can show the agent's mid-turn progress with an optional one-line title, enabled in the TUI /experiments or the web/Desktop settings' Lab section; set [experimental] notify_user = true or KIMI_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_NOTIFY_USER=1 to turn it on. #4145 242ac23 Thanks @wbxl2000! - Add kimi app [path] to open a new desktop chat in the current or specified directory. #4061 20a2cea Thanks @chengluyu! - Cap the agent's in-turn wait for background tasks at 90 seconds (longer timeouts are no longer accepted), discourage repeated waits, and let a new message end the wait immediately. #3998 09af3b4 Thanks @tpoisonooo! - Tower mode: a message sent while the agent is running aborts the in-progress turn and runs as its own turn. #4031 33e368a Thanks @Grapedge! - Add sticky user message summaries in fullscreen mode; click a summary to jump to the original message. #4074 c9f01f0 Thanks @tpoisonooo! - Tower mode: deterministic orchestration with TowerRebase and LLM-free status, goal/tower mutual exclusion, and workspace protection. #4059 1f6f0b1 Thanks @7Sageer! - Add the KIMI_CODE_TRUST_WORKSPACE environment variable to mark the workspace as trusted. #4165 afd95f6 Thanks @Grapedge! - Replace user skill cards with highlighted prompts and support Ctrl-S for skill prompts.

Minor Changes #3423 b199e33 Thanks @RealKai42! - Remind the model of its context budget before automatic compaction, and after compaction point it at the session's event log for exact details. #3525 eba23ed Thanks @wbxl2000! - Turn-level file history is now always on; the experimental file-history flag has been removed. #3516 6013658 Thanks @Grapedge! - Add an occasional session rating prompt above the input box. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: add tower multi-agent collaboration mode (experimental), enabled via the /tower command or the composer plus menu; /tower supports specifying a base branch (e.g. /tower add-new-feature). Patch Changes #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: fix background agent message cards incorrectly showing a running indicator. #3529 b184b31 Thanks @sailist! - Stop blocking dangerous commands and commands that cannot be statically analyzed in auto permission mode. #3522 523d35b Thanks @RealKai42! - Deliver background question answers to the agent directly instead of via a saved output file. #3522 523d35b Thanks @RealKai42! - Fix background questions being cancelled as soon as the agent finishes its turn. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: polish the style and interaction of Bash commands in the right-side panel. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: support selection comments and quote-to-chat in the diff and per-turn changes panels. #3459 b6b9b37 Thanks @RealKai42! - Subagent final messages are no longer bounced back for expansion when they are under 200 characters. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: fix file change previews showing added/removed lines that never existed when the same file is edited multiple times in one turn. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: pressing Esc no longer closes the right detail panel. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: fix the default thinking effort in settings not being settable to the highest level (Max). #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: rename the three permission modes to Always Ask / Ask When Needed / Never Ask and update their Chinese and English descriptions. #3473 d567a6a Thanks @7Sageer! - Show a warning after switching to Ask When Needed or Never Ask mode. #3498 a3b48a7 Thanks @7Sageer! - Fix print mode (kimi -p) ignoring the KIMI_DISABLE_TELEMETRY environment variable. #3531 51bd52a Thanks @7Sageer! - Fix print mode (kimi -p) losing session records when the run exits on an error or a termination signal. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: restyle selection quote pills from blue to the same neutral ink as other mentions, with a vertical bar separating the quote and comment. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: shorten selection quote pill excerpts to at most 12 characters. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: restore selection quoting — after selecting text in a message or file preview, you can add a comment or quote it into the chat. #3478 052e98e Thanks @RealKai42! - Resuming a subagent by its agent id now works after the session is reopened in a new process; the resumed subagent follows the current permission mode and is matched by its own profile in permission rules. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: selection comment bubbles near the bottom of the page now pop above the selection and grow upward, eliminating double scrollbars. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: fix selection bubbles displayed over the panel header being unclickable and lacking a hover state. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: fix the comment bubble popping up before mouse release when selecting text with a slow drag. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: rework selection comment bubble actions into right-aligned Cancel / Add to chat below the input, with an Enter hint on the confirm button. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: revamp the selection comment bubble — the comment box supports multi-line input and auto-grows, and the confirm button now matches the chat composer send button. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: support selection quoting in the terminal — select text to add a comment or quote it into the chat. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: lengthen the hover delay of quote and mention preview cards so merely passing the mouse over them no longer triggers them. #3461 8057d30 Thanks @tpoisonooo! - Tower mode (experimental, KIMI_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_TOWER=1): fix tower mode never starting when enabled through [experimental] tower = true in config.toml instead of the environment variable. When tower mode cannot be enabled, the error now names the actual blocker — the disabled experiment, a required restart, or the owning session. When another live session owns the workspace tower, the message also names the owning session's title alongside its id. /tower now also works in a directory that is not a git repository — it runs git init and commits what is there (an empty initial commit for empty directories). #3521 744b718 Thanks @kimi-agent-bot! - Remove the /dance Easter egg hint from the TUI tips rotation. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: fix inaccurate added/removed line counts in per-turn file change summaries after the same file is edited or overwritten multiple times. #3549 29e1875 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: per-turn file change cards now show only exact line statistics, and the card no longer appears when statistics are unavailable.

Also, a new session can now enter tower mode after the previous owning session stopped without exiting, instead of being refused while that session stays open. Tower mode now stays on after tower teardown; turn it off explicitly with /tower off. Tower mode is now mutually exclusive with plan mode and swarm mode: entering any one of them exits the others. #3399 c3bf6f9 Thanks @tpoisonooo! - Tower mode (experimental, KIMI_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_TOWER=1): the agent can no longer enter tower mode on its own — turn it on with /tower on, or with /tower (also in the web UI) to pin the local branch missions merge back into; a missing base branch is created from the current checkout (uncommitted changes committed onto it as a labeled WIP snapshot) and the workspace is initialized or rebased to it immediately, refusing with guidance while missions are open. Tower agents that die (failed, timed out, killed, or lost) are recorded in the tower protocol — TowerStatus marks them in the roster and warns about missions whose owner died, with a resume hint — and the tower's console instructions now require summarizing every worker's deliverables per mission before teardown. #3454 913a242 Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Fixed the context usage ring not refreshing after compaction; session usage now updates live from transcript metadata. #3391 5f0aa7f Thanks @7Sageer! - Default the workspace trust prompt selection to "Trust this folder" instead of "Don't trust". #3366 9619277 Thanks @kimi-agent-bot! - Use the Unicode ellipsis "…" in user-facing TUI and VS Code webview text. #3405 630a11d Thanks @kimi-agent-bot! - Download compressed native update artifacts and decompress them while staging.
