🛠 Moonshot AI Introduces Kimi Code CLI

Moonshot AI has released Kimi Code CLI — an open-source terminal AI agent for developers. Based on the Kimi K2.6 model (MoE, ~1 trillion parameters), the tool can read and edit code, execute terminal commands, and analyze video input to generate code. It supports MCP and ACP protocols for integration with IDEs (Zed, JetBrains).

🌍 The emergence of powerful open-source terminal agents increases competition with proprietary solutions like Claude Code and promotes standardization through the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

👤 Developers gain a fast tool with video support (allowing them to "show" the agent a screen recording of a bug) and the ability to extend functionality via sub-agents.
