Kimi for Coding is Moonshot AI’s membership-based coding service. Its keys use a dedicated coding endpoint and are not interchangeable with Moonshot Open Platform API keys.

​
Get a membership key

Activate a Kimi for Coding membership, then create a key in the Kimi Code console. Use the separate Moonshot AI provider for keys created at platform.kimi.ai.

​
Configuration

Add Kimi for Coding in Settings > Models and paste the membership key, or configure:
Roomote exposes supported models under the kimi-for-coding/ prefix. The recommended mappings can use Kimi’s stronger model for coding, vision, planning, and review while assigning its faster coding model to helper and explore work.

​
Cost behavior

Requests consume the allowance included with the Kimi for Coding membership, not a Moonshot Open Platform API balance. Roomote displays the provider-reported usage window when the Kimi service returns it. Plan limits and renewal behavior in the Kimi Code console are authoritative.

​
Verify setup

  1. save KIMI_API_KEY
  2. confirm Kimi for Coding models appear in Settings > Models
  3. apply a recommended mapping or assign one model manually
  4. run a small task and confirm the membership usage display updates

​
Common issues

  • The key is rejected. Confirm it came from the Kimi Code console after membership activation, not the Moonshot Open Platform.
  • The allowance is exhausted. Wait for the plan window to reset or change to a separately billed inference provider.
  • Usage is missing. Kimi’s usage endpoint can change or be unavailable; model requests may still work normally.
