At a glance

Delegates one bounded repository task to Kimi Code in non-interactive prompt mode and reads back the final result from its JSON event stream.

  • Works in 3 steps: Set the Bash working directory to the… → Check availability with command -v kimi.… → Run one prompt and exit
  • Handing a self-contained coding task to Kimi Code
  • SKILL.md covers Run and Authentication And Permissions
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

The agent runs a single prompt through the `kimi` command with `-p` and `--output-format stream-json`, in the smallest directory you authorized and with a finite timeout, normally ten minutes. It first checks that `kimi` is installed and, if not, stops and asks you to install Kimi Code in Code Mate. Output is parsed as JSONL in event order, the final assistant result is extracted, and an error event or nonzero exit counts as failure.

Prompt mode approves tool calls automatically and rejects `--yolo`, `--auto` and `--plan`, so the skill advises against running it on a writable project for a read-only task and suggests a disposable or read-only copy. It never starts the interactive UI or `kimi login` and never requests or prints credentials. For an approved write task, the agent names the files Kimi may change and inspects the diff afterward. Kimi keeps session state under `KIMI_CODE_HOME`, which may need one narrowly escalated retry inside a sandbox.

When your agent uses it

  • Handing a self-contained coding task to Kimi Code
  • Getting a read-only second look at a repository from Kimi Code
  • Running Kimi Code on a disposable copy of a project

Example prompts

  • “Ask Kimi Code to summarize how authentication works in this repo, using a read-only copy.”
  • “Delegate renaming the config loader to Kimi, limited to the files in src/config, then show me the diff.”
  • “Run Kimi Code on this bug report and give me its final answer.”

Requirements

  • Kimi Code installed in Code Mate, with the `kimi` command on the PATH
  • A Kimi Code login, model and provider already configured

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Set the Bash working directory to the smallest directory the user authorized and set a finite timeout, normally 10 minutes.
  2. Check availability with command -v kimi. If it is missing, stop and ask the user to install Kimi Code in Code Mate.
  3. Run one prompt and exit

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c97c23c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Kimi Code Delegation loads about 504 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 272 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~504

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Runs Kimi Code in non-interactive prompt mode and parses its event stream. Use when the user asks to delegate a bounded repository task to Kimi Code.

Kimi Code

Run

  1. Set the Bash working directory to the smallest directory the user authorized and set a finite timeout, normally 10 minutes.
  2. Check availability with command -v kimi. If it is missing, stop and ask the user to install Kimi Code in Code Mate.
  3. Run one prompt and exit:
bash
kimi -p "<prompt>" --output-format stream-json

Pass the prompt as one quoted argument. Parse stdout as JSONL, preserve event order, and extract the final assistant result. Treat an error event or nonzero exit as failure. Never start the interactive UI or kimi login.

Authentication And Permissions

If Kimi reports missing login, model, or provider configuration, stop and ask the user to configure Kimi Code in Code Mate. Never request, read, print, or copy credentials.

Prompt mode automatically approves tool calls and rejects --yolo, --auto, and --plan; those flags cannot make it safer. Do not run it against a writable project for a read-only task. Use a disposable or read-only copy instead. Run against the real project only when the user explicitly requests workspace changes, constrain the directory, and inspect the diff afterward.

Kimi writes session state under KIMI_CODE_HOME (normally ~/.kimi-code) before running workspace tools. If the host Bash reports a sandbox denial there for an explicitly approved write task, retry the exact command once with the narrowest host escalation. In DSH, request sandbox_permissions: danger-full-access with a justification naming Kimi's session storage, then wait for approval. Keep the working directory constrained; leave Kimi's config and credential files in place.

Example: for an approved implementation, ask Kimi to change only named files, run it in that project, parse the final JSONL event, and inspect the resulting diff.
