# Moonshot AI (Kimi)

Moonshot provides the Kimi API with OpenAI-compatible endpoints. Configure the
provider and set the default model to `moonshot/kimi-k2.5`, or use
Kimi Coding with `kimi-coding/k2p5`.

Current Kimi K2 model IDs:

* `kimi-k2.5`
* `kimi-k2-0905-preview`
* `kimi-k2-turbo-preview`
* `kimi-k2-thinking`
* `kimi-k2-thinking-turbo`

```bash
openclaw onboard --auth-choice moonshot-api-key
```

Kimi Coding:

```bash
openclaw onboard --auth-choice kimi-code-api-key
```

Note: Moonshot and Kimi Coding are separate providers. Keys are not interchangeable, endpoints differ, and model refs differ (Moonshot uses `moonshot/...`, Kimi Coding uses `kimi-coding/...`).

## Kimi Coding

```json5
{
  env: { KIMI_API_KEY: "sk-..." },
  agents: {
    defaults: {
      model: { primary: "kimi-coding/k2p5" },
      models: {
        "kimi-coding/k2p5": { alias: "Kimi K2.5" },
      },
    },
  },
}
```

## Notes

* Moonshot model refs use `moonshot/<modelId>`. Kimi Coding model refs use `kimi-coding/<modelId>`.
* Override pricing and context metadata in `models.providers` if needed.
* If Moonshot publishes different context limits for a model, adjust `contextWindow` accordingly.
* Use `https://api.moonshot.ai/v1` for the international endpoint, and `https://api.moonshot.cn/v1` for the China endpoint.
