Release notes:

Minor Changes

  • #3434 `ae7a6dc` Thanks @sailist! - The kimi acp subcommand no longer honors KIMI_CODE_LEGACY_FLAG; it always runs on the default agent engine.
  • #3334 `971a8b2` Thanks @7Sageer! - The subagent model pool ([secondary_model]) is enabled by default in every launch mode and remains opt-out via KIMI_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_SECONDARY_MODEL=0 or [experimental] secondary-model = false.
  • #3454 `913a242` Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Added a Plugins panel to Settings for browsing the plugin marketplace and installing, enabling, disabling, and removing plugins.

Patch Changes

  • #3454 `913a242` Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Fixed new content not appearing after auto-compaction (stuck at "Requesting…" above the divider); output after the compaction point now renders below the divider.
  • #3392 `616d510` Thanks @7Sageer! - Preserve comments, key order, and formatting in config.toml when configuration values are updated.
  • #3348 `9d2304c` Thanks @liukx0205! - Fix models and providers transiently disappearing when config.toml is saved non-atomically by an external editor while the daemon reloads it.
  • #3454 `913a242` Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: The connecting splash screen now shows the current loading stage and the reason when the connection fails.
  • #3290 `4b9888b` Thanks @sailist! - Block dangerous shell commands such as shutdown, reboot, or rm -rf in Auto mode, and always ask before running them in Manual and YOLO modes; disable the guard with [permission] dangerous_command_guard = false or KIMI_CODE_DANGEROUS_COMMAND_GUARD=false.
  • #3454 `913a242` Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Fixed queued or steered messages being unexpectedly retracted by pressing Esc after they start running.
  • #3454 `913a242` Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Show a refresh button in the right-sidebar file preview when the previewed file is edited mid-turn.
  • #3454 `913a242` Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Fixed the server-side attachment notice text leaking into your own message bubble after sending a file.
  • #3454 `913a242` Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Fixed messages sent with Ctrl+S while the agent is running disappearing after a page reload.
  • #3454 `913a242` Thanks @wbxl2000! - web: Fixed sessions occasionally stuck showing "working" after a message is appended mid-turn.
