Kimi K3 Is Live

4 hours ago

Kimi Code offers two models: Kimi K3 and Kimi K2.7 Code, available across three model IDs: k3, kimi-for-coding, and kimi-for-coding-highspeed.
Model features include varying context windows (up to 1M for K3, 256k for K2.7 Code), reasoning capabilities (K3 supports max effort, K2.7 Code has thinking ON), and speed (high-speed version is 6x faster with 3x quota usage).
Usage may increase after model switch due to cache invalidation; starting a new session is recommended for better results and lower consumption.
Common errors include 401 for plan limitations (e.g., no K3 access below Moderato plan) and unnoticeable HighSpeed due to mistyped IDs or tool/script dominance.
To reduce overhead when switching reasoning effort, maintain consistency within a session or start a new session for changes.
Switch models via official CLI, VS Code extension, or third-party tools, ensuring proper context window and reasoning effort settings for K3.
