Kimi Code CLI Help

Help users with Kimi Code CLI questions by consulting documentation and source code.

Strategy

  1. Prefer official documentation for most questions
  2. Read local source when in kimi-cli project itself, or when user is developing with kimi-cli as a library (e.g., importing from
    kimi_cli
    in their code)
  3. Clone and explore source for complex internals not covered in docs - ask user for confirmation first
